Looking good. Gears still high, though. Any hope to see HX fixing this?

Very interesting! There's no FD offered - so Av400? Or new player new mould?

In my opinion, it may be AV400 or JC OEM, but it is only ￥268 RMB (original price). Only these two companies can offer such a low price.
Both Aviation400 and JC Wings have told me they are not working with Geministar.
They have suggested and I agree that these will probably use the Jet Models 777 moulds, which is why they can be so cheap. I believe Geministar collaborated with Jet recently on that Sichuan A319 which seemed to come in 2 versions (without aerials for JET and with for Geministar).

Oh,I remember that JETHUT said that they would launch CX and Eva 77W. After request, they said that there would be two versions, one without aerials and one with aerials. It seems now that the version with aerials is for Geministar.
I am surprised that Geministar are willing to use the JETHUT moulds when they have previously used the Panda and HX versions, but I guess the price helps and they have improved a bit.

If it is true, I would be surprised too. But JETHUT has made some improvements on 77W before, including changing to rolling gear, which looks good.

yes
After the discount,without aerials (CZ 77W) is sell ¥168 RMB
Geministar 77W after the discount is sell ¥225 RMB
Agreed JETHUT have certainly improved their overall products and this 77W isn't bad. They are finally beginning to fulfil some of the potential I talked about 4 years ago (just with mainly Chinese material):

That's actually cheaper than NG Lite!
The JetHuts yes but the GeminiStar no. This NG 748 is only 188 RMB I'm not seeing any NG Lite over 200

RIchard I think you mix the 2 B-6419(sichuan airlines A319) releases up
Jethuts' is using their own mould and has a price around 180rmb. geministars' which uses the panda mould is still under production and it charges a higher price of 260rmb. at the current stage I'm still not sure abput which mould is GS going to use to make their 777 releases.(a brand new mould could be possible?)

See it's really unclear as when you search on Taobao there are two versions (one with and one without aerials) and the names interchangeably use Jet or Geministar based on the listing. Are you sure the Geministar is a third version and it will use the Panda mould? I had thought that was the case too but I am not so sure now.
See here for example:
Like I say I asked my contacts at AV and JC and at least one of them said he suspected it was going to be the JET mould so I guess we'll see. I think an entirely new mould from a brand like Geministar is highly unlikely.
