Unfortunately, this was a predictable outcome that didn't need to happen. It's a shame but a good time to look at older releases that people may have not been able to prioritize.

I'm wondering if people should hold off on pre-orders all together until this plays out..

Yeah, I'm totally sure that's why. looking at my older MD80's and MD90's from GJ with no antennas, I believe they look better as the overall look of the model is more proportional, if you're going to do it, I just don't see the point in only doing one.

One thing that has kind of bugged me about the GJ MD-80 is the singular antenna on the top of the fuselage. In my opinion it makes the mold look kind of goofy and I believe they are better off either doing all of them or none of them at all.

The AA chrome livery hides some of the flaws with the cockpit printing on the NG 767-200 when you see it in person it seems.

It would be a wise choice if they did start from scratch. however, communication can go a long way.

There could be a market to sell spare parts... I'm surprised you don't see more for sale.

I lean on the side that they're potentially starting from scratch but who knows... regardless, if they decided to move forward with what they currently have, it would be a total shame as there is so much pent-up demand for a good mold.

Yikes that's really unfortunate as you rely on the manufacturer to be dependable.

I have been dying for an NWA bowling shoe 747 in 1:400 Scale that isn't the old Gemini/JC or Big Bird mold... considering AC really messed up the most recent NWA 747 release with the paint scheme and the Pheonix being subpar. It's a shame we can't get more 747 classics on a new mold.

Thats what I was referencing when I said "Ready for release"... Still waiting for the City of Everett in the non-lite version.

Has there been any updates on the NG Models 747-100 - 747-400 mold? I know we have seen the Lite versions in limited releases that need major improvements. I saw NG comment last summer that the 747 Mould was going to be fixed and ready for release by October of this past year but nothing has...

I have always been curious how you deal with defective models that are shipped from the manufacturer.

Would probably be best if they were detachable like the landing gear so you could move them without breaking them.

Do we even know if the NG A340's still exist? 😂
