It's rumored that the very first Tootsietoy vehicle was a Bleriot Plane made in 1910, no hard proof though. They made a lot of planes, todays is a 1937 Crusader, made in 1937. It's a real plane, you can do some research on it.

One of these days I have to buy some props for all my planes, but until then they are all grounded.

Very nice, it kinda looks like it could have been one of Sky King's early planes. ;) :)
