Legacy Jets 1:400 Scale Models

I have to say I think you guys are being harsh comparing this to the Dragon mould! If it was only a few years older I'd be getting it myself

While it’s not exactly like Dragon, the nose looks disparagingly similar.

Looks like a middle of the road model, NG has a better model IMO

Agreed. Just looks like Gemini quality or slightly worse, for engine proportions it is better though.

I disagree that it looks like Gemini quality. I think it looks like HX quality (clearly made by them based off the stand and previously revealed info). HX have been doing a great job quality wise and their printing/detailing is top-notch.

I beg to differ, I think it’s really the nose that’s lower quality. I did say that the rest of the mould was great, it’s just the nose I’ve complained on.

Y'all are dunkin' way too hard on that model, I have seen worse get more praise from here. It looks fine imho

I think part of the complaints are from the price point — obviously beating a dead horse with that, and I get those concerns, but it isn’t absolutely terrible either.

It's not that it is a bad model per se. I'd also consider it a middle of the road model.
But given that LJs marketing produced more hot air than a GE90 at full thrust, I'd consider this and the 737 pretty substandard.
But let's be fair: we are looking at cellphone images.
I so totally don't understand why manufacturers post such pics at all. If you want to promote a product, use a camera not a cellphone.

I hear this, and I get that every new brand will hype their own products. Personally, I have full confidence in LJ and their future releases. The Elals they released in 1:200 scale, are already really impressive. As legacy grows and hopefully develops its own tooling (im aware they have one already, but unannounced), I’m sure we’ll see even more great things from them. And their customer relations and qc seems to be just as good. I have a rather good feeling about them.
