that looks nice. had a feeling it was gonna be a 4 engine, 6 bladed turboprop but just couldn't find what it was exactly
Thank you @JJ Skippy and @Qantas992 for your compliment. My guess was based on the hints spotted by others: props and four engines and suddenly the amphibian came to my mind. As NG has had 2 Chinese-made plane in both 200 and 400 scales, my best bet that the 200 scale would have the Xian Y-20 scaled up from 400 while in the very bear future this aircraft would came to the smaller 400 scales. NG being a good citizen. So it would not be surprised that future NG new moulds feature the domestic made airliners.
I agree. This could have just been a simple announcement on NG's FB and a mould review by Richard. Not really anything to write home about. If they did this with the 747, then yes, a 24-hour build-up period would be justified, but not for a 1:200 niche amphibious aircraft. Oh well, it still looks ok, so I might get one, depending on what liveries they release.NG brings you the aircraft model you didn't know you needed in your collection
It looks very nice. And it is good to see something out of the ordinary, and a growing catalog of aircraft types from the far east. I don't see myself getting one anytime soon. An odd type to be released with all the suspense built up over the last 24 hours though.
Yeah. I admire their willingness to go 'off the beaten track', and just throw us a complete curveball.
Or a MD80!
I would definitely welcome an MD-80...or even an MD-90.
And American Airline's bare metal livery along with it too!
Oh man, I would be retiring from life if we get this...
