[MIAv8Diecast]

Interesting you provided the -233…that narrows things down at least a little bit! Here’s every -233 made…

This is interesting... Considering LJ and Final Approach are U.S. based this leaves me a little stumped as I would have thought for sure this would be a U.S. release. Not seeing any U.S. content that I would be interested in based of the chart you posted.

I’d take a Volaris A320; all I’ve got for them is an A321neo.

If it is a Volaris it's still quite underwhelming with all the hype following this.

True, we could’ve benefitted from something else. I still want an Allegiant A320 fence tips…

 

[legacyjets]

You guys are great! Hint: It is not Volaris

I would just be heavily disappointed if after all the hype we get another middle of the road A320 - 737 release to debut such a secretive launch.

There’s nothing wrong with hype! It means people care. We’re a new brand built on hard work and getting things right. Every release takes months of dedication and design before it earns the Legacy Jets name. Collectors saw it with our EL AL models, and we hope they'll see it again with our future releases

the E170s are final approach exclusives…the others are just by LJ I believe they said. That leaves the 737/A320 in the air as to where they’d be from.

I get that and appreciate what you guys are doing. Just hoping the subject matter matches the hype.

If it's got to be a N-registered -233 in colours of a US operator then I'm down to just one airframe unless I screwed the database query. A -232 sistership of this was released by Herpa many years ago.

Hope you guys are going to branch out into the DC-10 and A310 avenues. As they’ve literally only been covered mainly by one manufacturer. There’s another too but hardly done and mould was ****. Just a thought!

That isn't quite correct. Of the 158 A310s made 86 are by Aeroclassics so there are quite a few others on four different castings, although they aren't good I agree.

There are at least 4 ok DC-10s in 400 scale with the Apollo and Aeroclassics versions definitely being the best. Aeroclassics has made nearly half the 437 made.

There is a new DC-10 being made by a brand at the moment, but I question whether it will get used well.

New moulds aren't the issue really as much for me as getting them used properly. Aeroclassics may have some QC issues nowadays but the one thing you can say about them is they use their moulds well. Then you look at wonderful moulds like the Panda MD-11, Tu-134, NG Tu-154, MD-80, Tristars, Tu-204, JC Wings F100, DHC-8, One-Eleven - even the HX 747s. Both the number and selection of schemes is questionable.

That would leave LATAM or Avianca 320s which do frequent airports around the country.

I would be happy if it was LATAM widebody 767, A350 or 787 but not a narrowbody. That's just my opinion though.

How so? We have yet to get a quality release of the LATAM Chile 320 fleet from anyone. PHX did a neo (with a sticker), but a vast majority of the fleet are ceos. AC has done the full fleet, but with varying regs that are in service anymore like LATAM Argentina. In contrast, there’s been more of thewide bodies that have been released. I agree that they probably need to rerelease the 767, but it’d be much better for a Chilean reg ceo to be released.

Considering that I don't personally have any interest in collection Chilean narrowbodies and have been wanting a LATAM 767 & A350 on NG or Panda's offerings due to their superior mold and we haven't gotten one. That's why I stated my personal opinion recognizing not everyone feels the same.

Of course everyone is entitled to their own opinions, I was just stating there’s a larger hole for LATAM 320s than their wide body fleet that has at least gotten a release on a decent 787/777 mold and the 767 (which isn’t as good).

I do agree.
