GeminiStar new releases

[KG3036_SS]

Just brosing through Red Note when noticing some retailers published pre-order listings for the following GeminiStar models - orders are being accepted on Taobao now as I browse:

Singapore Airlines A350-900 9V-SMA/SMF/SHA

ANA B747-400D JA8957 "Pokemon Jet" 3rd generation

EVA Air B747-400 B-16401 (1st gen EVA Air livery)

Great Wall Airlines B747-400F B-2428

Jade Cargo B747-400ERF B-2422

Air China A350-900 B-308M "Star Alliance" (In 2 different Box Art)


Actual mould being used for the Jumbos are unknown atm - the A350s are believed to be PM though - in line with previous releases by the brand.

Those Air China A350s - aren't they part of the previous massive release announcement with ALL of CAs A350s?

I'd expect the 747s to be HX

 

[LeoMuse747]

Really curious to see these Jumbos. I believe HX still didn't release a B747-400 with GE engines

Really hope these will be available internationally.

For those looking to buy, get SHA. SM_ regs don’t have the upgraded winglets present on the Panda mould.

I agree. Just like the HX/SQ Wings 747’s. Can’t find any retailers who sell them.

I doubt they will. The brand name alone is enough to cause issues

MHH stocks them, but they are quite slow.

The response I got from consulting the owner of this brand was that the 747 series is made by HX and the A350 series is made by Panda.

If you have Tencent WeChat you can search for this，
Allow me to use Chinese here (I don't know if it's searchable in English.). Taobao:模时代模型总汇， Tencent's WeChat mini-program:模时代模型总汇

I’m going to have to try and find out how to purchase on Taobao. Certainly some gems on there which you can’t get elsewhere.

 

[ChairFlyer101]

Found on Carousell in Singapore, they look really good. Anybody know if we'll get them anywhere in North America?

 

[Theresa apocalypse222222]

3 747s are available now

 

[pommy80]

I’ve ordered one (9V-SMA) from Taobao, so let’s see what eventually arrives

I assume you're not in the US?

these look awesome. Great to see the HX mould being put to use!

 

[Lightsnack87]

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

You aren't exactly wrong per say, but this is the HX Mould. You can tell from the gears, as they are slightly too tall compared to the short gear JC uses on their 747-400's. The HX mould is said to be a slightly modified JC mould.

In 200 scale that maybe true but isn't that similar to the JC in 400 scale at all to be honest.
