Model teaser from HX model, partially physical.

It doesn't make a difference for the collector. Some elements of these HX/SQ models repeat pretty distinct errors done before no matter what we call it.

I agree!

Somewhere on this thread, I remember it said that the 5th engine on the Longreach model would be detachable. Is that still the case?

It’s very likely. I remembered the Sample’s engine on Shanghai Exhibition was detachable.

Just asking but what is the point of a model being gold plated? Does it make it rarer?

These are typically made in very small numbers for friends and family. Some Chinese brands have something of a fixation on these. NetModels and BlueBox in the old days for example. Nowadays Aviation400 and HX seem too.

I hope this means we are one step closer to a China Airlines standard livery 747. Make my day by making it a 90s scheme without the Skyteam logo for the Kai Tak portion of my collection.
...

Oh, and a China Airlines 747-200 while we're at it

 

[Aircrafter93]

Does anyone with knowledge have an idea when the Cathay Pacific 'The Spirit of Hong Kong 97' 747-200 will be released? Surely, they have to be ready soon considering when the production pictures months back were first shared.

Lovely!!! Blue a bit too light but maybe that's the light/editing on these pictures?
Qantas B743 Nalanji Dreaming also had this same issue, but I want to believe it's just the light or photo editing.

Just the photo problem
