Is Panda Model The Next Big Thing in 400 Scale?

[planes_on_a_shelf]

You guys are going totally offtopic (myself included in my previous post, I assume my blame)

Yes this should be a separate thread. Appreciate the course correction lol (pun intended)

If the aircraft type would have been introduced commercially before 1990,
That'll make the A320ceos classics as well (strange, no?)
With the 744 & 333 borderline classics. Which is a stretch I'd think

That does make sense.

I have always been a Panda lover, their models are outstanding (shame their A330 moulds disappeared...), and have quite a large amount of their models given my somewhat limited collection. I remember back in the days they were hard to find, yet they are a solid brand nowadays!

I have been working a bit with Panda recently (news to come in 2025 hopefully)

This has me very excited...

How can I say, I don't think it can be compared with NG and Phoenix, they are mainly doing OEM now, providing production help for brands like CW, C MODEL, patriot, YU and so on. The production cycle is too long, a Chinese airliner model seller customized the whole series of Air China A350 models and still haven't finished delivering them (still missing the B-208M, and the B-1086, which I've already pre-ordered for October 2024), not to mention the 767 items released by Panda Models themselves are not yet delivered. Seems like 2024 is a long production cycle for both Phoenix and Bearcat ........

What 767s? There have been two runs of -400s delivered. The first round of -300s are packed up and ready also, they are just taking their sweet time to actually ship the parcels.

什么 767？已经交付了两批 -400。第一批 -300 也已打包完毕，他们只是在慢慢地运送包裹。

767-300ER, DELTA N171DZ, N176DZ,D-ABUM,and C

Ohh yes I now remember.

Hopefully Panda will release MU & CZ later under their brand / dealer network outside China - CW won't be available at My Hobby House

These 763s look solid, i want to see what panda 76w looks like. I really hope they didn't butcher the winglets like NG did.

where did you get these pictures ?

 

[YesterAirlines]

Taobao or WeChat presumably

I should mention that MADb is fully up to date with Panda (and associated brand) releases.

No more Tu-134s have been announced @Mark22
