Hmm interesting
Model Review - Korean Air Boeing 737-900 by HX Models
- Thread starter YesterAirlines
- Start date
To be honest the QC on this model is awful with that nosegear fit.

Well, had they looked more at a real 737NG instead of what was done for/by JC previousely, they could have done a lot more things right.
Interesting you say that but to be honest I own 158 Panda branded models (not including models made for other brands by them) and 6 Aero Polaris and as far as I recall I've never had a QC issue with one as annoying as this.I have experienced really bad situations on PM and AP

That’s funny. Maybe I am unlucky enough. Wanna see pictures?
I'm not saying you're lying.
I am saying that since you joined and started posting your photo reviews (which I do like so keep doing them) of the 21 you've done 14 have been models made in the HX factory, 2 are old models and only 5 are not HX and recent releases so you're definitely a big fan of HX Models.

Not to get into the weeds but if anything is a test run it would be NG Lite... I haven't seen NG fully commit to this business model but only when it seems convenient for them to do so on untested subjects. I.e. 737 MAX, 747-8 and 747-100.

That only implies I am purchasing HX’s models recently. However there are also NGs PMs and AVs on my shelf right now waiting to be shared. I’m just too busy. I am the president of two clubs, and I have got Physics project to work on. Moreover, I began sharing right exactly when HX came out, I love 747 most and I think their 747 is worthy. Is there anything weird that I buy and share them?
Well even if I am a fan of HX, does it mean I cannot make judges rationally and objectively? I like HX often, but that only implies I might understand and know HX better.
So I don’t quite get the meaning of using statistics to try to prove I am a fan of HX. Sorry about that.
As far as I know, PM is now currently manufacturing for your brand? Sorry in advance if I don’t make it correct. Definitely you would not say a bad word on your product, in normal cases.
Certainly NG used the NG Lite brand as a dumping ground for unsatisfactory 747-100s and 400s but I don't agree they did with anything else. There have been 40 releases in the NG Lite line now and the Southwest MAXs for example came out at the same time as both standard and Lite releases and the mould was well tested by then (and perfect first time around I'd say) with the first release back in Jan 23. The same goes for the 747-8s - the Lite version of the LH came out in Nov 24 and the standard in July plus the mould dates back to Sep 23
It isn't my brand it's Motor City's but I see what you're saying, however I can't be biased against everyone - I thought I was NG's man
. I do my best to mix it up with the reviews to cover as many brands as possible.I've just noticed you're a big fan of HX. Nothing wrong with that necessarily but all I can do is judge on evidence in front of me in terms of what I see being said and what I see in terms of the literally hundreds of models I acquire. No offence meant - I like your reviews, please keep on producing them.

I suppose you're right, but I guess I should have been more specific. The choices have always seemed extraordinarily random and over time few and far between and in many cases the subject matter was on molds that were largely untested and or color variations were not as accurate to the real thing. i.e. 747-400, 747-100.. To me it feels like a test bed for NG to try new things with less consequences.
I agree it has been rather random and hit and miss. NG always have too much going on at the same time. Lots of ideas they struggle to deliver adequately.

I think this hits the nail on the head to my point. Always acting sporadic that seems short sighted.
Their eyes are just bigger than their belly as the saying goes. They want to do it all but can't.

Sincere thanks for your encouragement. Also I really appreciate your proficiency and your articles, which are rich in content, insightful and meticulous. Especially for the comparison of moulds for the same model from different manufacturers, they gave me a lot inspiration and encouraged me to make similar comparisons—but they are on my rednote.It isn't my brand it's Motor City's but I see what you're saying, however I can't be biased against everyone - I thought I was NG's man

I was just a little bit confused right now, and I am not a native speaker of English, so some of my words may sound impolite. Sorry if it bothered you.
Sometimes they call me “the unlucky guy” because when I buy models I really often get the ones that have defect or QC problems( for products of HX, PM, NG and other brands). I really envy your luck
Once again, thank you for your encouragement and it seems to be a misunderstanding just now
. But after all we have similar opinions on HX 737—needs IMPROVEMENT, and also, try to make it correct as much as they can on their first release.Oh by the way, Panda is said to have their newest 737 mould, applied on products for Creating Dreams Wings. Excited cuz I’ve been waiting for Shenzhen Airlines for a long time

What’s utterly ridiculous is that the font size and color of Air China Cargo markings are obviously incorrect.
Well it’s cheap but it doesn’t mean you can disrespect that
it’s also disrespectful to those customers who want NG lite.
Don't apologise your English is amazing whilst my Chinese is non-existent! I'm sorry if it sounded like I was questioning your integrity.
I didn't realise they'd changed it. I'm keen on the Shenzhen too. I tried to convince him to make the delivery colours, which I'd really like to get!Oh by the way, Panda is said to have their newest 737 mould, applied on products for Creating Dreams Wings.

Just got to it. So here's a quick overlay of a 737NG v.tail profile and HX's. Note the trailing edge. Comes exactly as expected.
For the fun of it, just to show you why I always bring up JC. Here's the same drawing overlaying a JC.

Ah of course not
. I am just worried that sometimes a slightly heated discussion may cause estrangement, but in fact, it can enable us to exchange views more fully and deepen our understanding of aviation culture and models/saluteSimilar threads
