British Airways 747s in the Landor livery by Big Bird are pretty much impossible to find for a sensible price in 1:400 scale. The other day I visited West Main Toys in Hong Kong and they had one in 1:500 scale. I bought it, it is a lovely model. Even though I have a small 1:500 display section, this one is for now sitting on my desk so I can look at it all the time. First time that I see a model actually branded as "Big Bird." I had only seen the Big Bird name used to be referred to models with the "YourCraftsman" logo.

Beautiful model, and just a scaled down version of the 1:400 mould :) I know some collectors (mainly here in Brazil) who didn't update their minds, and still think 1:500 models are only those old generation Herpas with huge black wheels :LOL:
