Gemini Jets August 2025 Releases

NG barely releases 1 European model, 2-3 American models, and then a dozen + Asian models. Gemini meanwhile releases a 1:400 commercial set containing 50% non-American models. Simple math shows that Gemini’s release is far more diverse. You yourself even commented that it was nice to see the Binter and Cuban models, a complement that falls short because of the subsequent comparison to NG insinuating release inferiority.

Gemini is an American brand, so if NG can release as many Asian models as they want because they’re an Asian brand, the same holds true for Gemini does it not? You claim that NG is catering to the Asian market and are thus justified in releasing handful after handful of Asian models, yet when GJ releases more than 3 American models as an American brand, that’s absurd? GJ at least attempts to be more inclusive yet still manages to draw your ire.

I also spotted a user named LatchieHare using the derogatory term “yanks” to describe American collectors. Instead of enforcing the rules, you like his comment instead.

I’m sorry but your claims of not being biased are laughable.
It's actually LachieHare 🤣 and it's hardly derogatory, we call Americans Yanks, English Poms, New Zealanders Kiwis etc etc

Also, GJ isn't diverse at all. This release isn't too bad but it's a steady stream of US releases that Richard is right, if NG released this then they would be criticised heavily.
 
I only collect from GJ their European regionals, and they nailed it with that Binter E2! Definitely getting it, have been waiting for a while for them or JC to release one.

And the Binter E2 is great - now we need the CRJ-X to accompany it!

Unfortunately they no longer operate the type, but it would be welcome anyways! An ATR would be nice to have too.
 
Despite my enormous bias against Gemini ;) I have a surprisingly large number of nice things to say about this bunch of models. Diverse it isn't but there's quite a bit of potential nonetheless:

 
I think classifying the Cubana release as an American release is wrong. Cuba isn't part of the US and the government has a lot of restrictions on Cuba which have been around since the 60s. Plus Cubana doesn't fly here as a result.

It's a nice release but I wouldn't be putting it under the same umbrella as the US airlines.

He didn't classify as an American release, he just stated that this release is probably aimed at American market because, well... in Cuba people certainly can't really afford buying model planes, so the market is not really there:(

Emirates EXPO is one of the worst selling models ever made. Plenty of stock left everywhere on the 1st release, including 1/200. Who's the idiot at corporate wants to redo it again :ROFLMAO:

It's 100% aimed at the US market and Cuban Americans isn't it. I suspect not a single copy is getting to Cuba. I suspect my understanding of Cuban history is probably more extensive than yours!
