JC Wings Cathay 747-400s

[samleung]

Finally JC is starting to read the market and release more classics 747

Is not they read or not... many times JC has no choice

DL/NW/BA/UAL and many other Europe and N America carriers are in radar for LONG TIME, just no green light to partner

JC is almost giving profit to NG/Phx for no choice... poor JC

 

[samleung]

Low demand, or JC himself doesn’t really care.

Is not low demand, some models JC made about 300pcs, just don't have permission to made

 

[samleung]

Yep, it does depend entirely on the airline. If it's US or European it's bound to be tough, since GJ has a stronghold on those segments. Asian? Judging by today's news it's just a matter of choice, and it appears JC isn't really keen on them unless competition forces his hand. More obscure or defunct airlines likely don't have enough demand.

To be fair, I am the person to made the post of FB and Instagram, and I am the person to use "Fried Bird" as a joke... this is not JC words...
he just laugh for my silly words....

In JC side, "too large, too many models to made" sometime is an issue, don't forget, NOT ONLY GJ is their customer, and many times, there is too many liveries have to made, you also can say "JC made the silver bullet in 1:200 thats why PHX made 1:400"

I know it is not the best way to do in that, but for me, if I can push JC to release them, I do a good job

 

[samleung]

Do we maybe know what models JC has at there warehouse that are already made but GJ keeps in vetoing?

I can tell you, over 50+ in the warehouse, got green light when productions, and red light when JC try to release

 

[samleung]

Let me give you guys a comment "IF JC can release all their models in warehouse, I am sure you need to sell your cars and house" lol

So will we be able to see the CX 747-400s around next month? I'm getting the impression that they're already produced.

I can see how you came up with Fried Bird Models.

So there was this niggling doubt that 'why does this sound like @samleung ' which you've now confirmed lol

On another note, till when are JC going to be tied up to GJ - and is there a possibility of a GJ-free JC?

 

[planes_on_a_shelf]

hahhaahhaa...you are lucky if they are in market in Christmas

I frankly don't mind waiting.
Let JC take their time to make this an excellent pair of models.
They'll have my money when it's on the market.
One thing in this hobby is to cultivate patience - in as many situations as possible lol - and this is one such.

Silver Bullet's up. I was for sure going to pick it up, not anymore.

Same here... Although not unexpected, it is still disappointing. I don't mind interactive models when I would use them in a diorama. However, I was planning on displaying this one, and the interactive features just make that an instant no-go.

IMO interactives should always be released alongside a non-interactive equivalent, just like what JC/GJ does with flap down models. On a more positive note a regular pax seems to be coming as well, and there's no excuse to make that interactive..
