HX Models - News & Discussion

[YesterAirlines]

The "N742PA" also seems to have the title "PAN AM" larger than the first HX version with the shiny engines.

That's because it's a completely different livery! This is the 1976 scheme not the 1970 livery or the 1973 livery

Changes were:

• Larger black PAN AM titles using the modified font with less spacing between the letters
• The blue cheatline terminating at the radome on the 747s
• Clipper titles in a script font
• The flag on the tail enlarged and slanted

Delta 747!!!!!

That’s going to be a gift to my dad…

The Delta has the same Reg as the 'approved' NG CRP wish.
Couldn't HXs reg be different?!

When do we expect the 747 to be ready and how much $?

NG's version will likely never be released anyways. None of the first few approved CRP wishes have been produced so far, so the outlook is quite bleak to say the least

That Delta 747-400 will be at top 5 model of 2026 in my book. It has been almost a decade since we have gotten one and one that is seamless as well for the first time ever.

Well if NG wouldn’t be so incompetently slow with CRP models and usage. RIP NG.

Hoping the new nose gear doors and modified wingroot made it to these releases too (as seen with the Cathay special -8F and exclusive Swissair 747-300s), bit uncertain with the Delta and ABC as they were already previewed in production months ago

Regardless these will still look fantastic

no idea on when but we got the fuselage pics a few months ago so I’d assume next 2-3 months they’ll hit retailers. Cost would probably be in line with other HX 747s probably 60usd or so give or take

Wrong. Yam Dreaming 787 rerelease, Boeing 747-400 prototype and if I remember correctly, Singapore Airlines 747-400s in the Tropical livery were all part of the first approved wishes and NG released them. That being said, most of the first approved wishes are yet to be released but saying that none of the first approved wishes were made is wrong.

Quite a lot has been released - check the website

Delta 拥有与“已批准”的 NG CRP 愿望相同的 Reg。
HX的调节器就不能有所不同吗？！

After all, NG’s wish list is just for other manufacturers to use as a reference, hahahahahahahahahahaha. I actually thought NG would be unveiling some new products at this Beijing show, but it turns out all they brought was the B-1111. Have you ever seen a “limited edition” model limited to just 1,000 units? NG’s standard production run is 1,000 units per batch… It’s been 10 months since NG last exhibited a bare-hull model of the A340-300 at the Shanghai Model Expo.

It went on sale on Taobao this morning. I plan to buy one first to try modifying the airframe number. I’m not sure yet if modifying the tail will cause the paint to chip, but if the results are good, I’ll buy a few more to expand my Delta Air Lines fleet. After all, I’ve been waiting a year since I first heard this model was coming out.

The release date is still uncertain. I currently purchased it on Taobao for 258 RMB, and the pre-order price on Wingsworld is 248 RMB. I’m not sure about prices outside of mainland China, but you can contact Wingsworld for information on shipping costs and product pricing.
