I was going to say the same thing. To me, after looking at Richard's photos, it actually looks like the shape of the APU is a bit different. That's just me though.

Good lord there's a lot of these pop-up brands to keep track of. Nice little models, the Juneyao is particularly nice and colorful. C Models would mean that that's the Panda tooling?

These seem to have limited availability in the United States. I've only seen Aero Polaris models at one retailer, and only the 737s. I'm sure that will be a hurdle for U.S. buyers.

Great summative Richard, thank you. A little bit of everything in the works it seems. Lots of new players in the scale looking to challenge the tenured companies.

You should do more investigating, not every A300 has been affected, and the AC A300 mould is really good. There's no harm in reaching out to a few dealers to see what's available. No harm in asking if in stock models are up to spec.

The Air Sechelles is a real disapointment. That's top of my list when Panda gets their casting into full production. But I suspect it will be a long time before we see another example of this airline, so this version will hold it's position until then.

That's absolutely fair. I used to be more critical of it, but I've softened as of late, but that's just out of personal preference, and not based on sheer accuracy. Like I said, everyone knows with the Panda mould coming, this one will be less and less relevant.

Absolutely agree with you. I think the Aeroclassics 762 gets more flack than it deserves. It's not as atrocious as some make it out to be. It is largely brought down by the larger gears, but up on the stand, or in the hand, it's not bad looking, and because of the lower demand, many of the older...

A few more photos from the March set. My A300's both have the 'wavy wings.' Not a bad set overall, but with production issues happening consistently, and new A300, and 767-200 castings on the way, Aeroclassics' market share is shrinking.

767-200 looks pretty good. Certainly will be a good competitor with the Aeroclassics mold. It looks like it has superior engine pylons, as well as a better molded and fitted vertical stab. Probably will have better landing gear as well.

I may be wrong, but that looks like the JC Wings 747 mold.
