That's giving them too much credit. They could have another month to produce the models and the printing would still be effed if they decided to be lazy. There have been other batches of models with errors that were not released around the CNY holiday.

It’s anti-western sentiment among NG’s upper management. They still need to appeal to everyone though. Instead of models it’s the CRP program. It’ll be another decade before some of those voted models are released.

Outside of collection sales and among commercial retailers they do have a wide selection of older releases, and more recent releases that may be sold out elsewhere. I’ve purchased many long sold out AC models from them (last year the US Airways A320 in the navy colors, Powder the Polar Bear...

Waffle's high shipping covers any possible return expenses, otherwise the extra price is pure profit. Jetcollector is reasonable.

The tulip’s color is oversaturated with blue

Let us know if you get a response

They'll say that you are returning models with defects that other customers would be okay with, that the damage is easily repairable, etc. I'm not sure what that threshold is to be blacklisted, but the fact that they are outright ghosting customers now with legitimate concerns speaks volumes...

New cockpit printing is incredible

Fair warning PandaFox is one of the retailers that will blacklist customers for "excessive returns." It's truly a shame because their customer service used to be top notch and their distinguishing factor among other retailers.

More Frontier, more US Airways, more United in the Tulip livery. I do have 4 of the NG Tulip 757s and an A320/A319 by AC but could add many more to fleet build

The fade would add a better touch for sure. The 0s probably symbolize the 0s behind the 1, but it just looks like 000000000 the way it’s mapped out

If they did something like a Stars and Stripes pattern on the fuselage that merged with the vertical stab, that would have been born only patriotic and true to the AA theme but also much more appealing.

Those rings in the back are an eye sore. Looks like chain mail or reptile skin.

I made the mistake of displaying my 1:200 Hawaiian A330 on top of my refrigerator, which is next to my stovetop. Several months later, come to find there is a sheet of dried, sticky oil residue coating part of the fuselage. When I go to clean it, the oil came off, but also some of the silver...

That's a great point, it wouldn't be a surprise if they did, considering they went all out on 727s with the last release batch!
