Vintage Big Ears Aeroplane — Die-Cast Toy by Ertl (c. 1990) — Official Noddy Collectible
.
Here’s a wonderful slice of Toyland magic! This charming vintage die-cast aeroplane features Big Ears sitting proudly in the cockpit of a bright green biplane, complete with spinning red propeller and bold yellow “NODDY” lettering across the wing.
.
Made by the quality die-cast specialists Ertl around 1989–1990, this is an officially licensed Noddy collectible with all the nostalgic warmth of classic Enid Blyton storytelling.
Solid and weighty in the hand (as proper old toys should be!), it rolls beautifully on its little white wheels and displays perfectly — whether on a shelf, in a nursery, or as part of a joyful vintage toy collection.
