Those are some good looking models Keith - thanks for posting.

The Alia L-1011 looks stunning as does the BA A318, MU A330 and Balkan Tu-154.

Interestingly although they said they'd made some changes to the 154 mould I don't really see any.

Can't wait for this one. JC Wings announced theirs in JULY....still no sign of it yet.

Ordered the Alia L-1011. I'm glad NG did the only Alia livery that had not yet been done in 1:400 (at least as far as DiMA says).

Maybe it's just me or the lighting, but the blue on Colorado One looks just a bit too dark to me.

Looks pretty good. When are November hints expected to come out?

Wow, I didn't know that. I learn something new every day.

Looks like they've managed to keep the 737 nose profiles quite consistent this time around. Love to see it!

Balkan Holidays Tu-154 looks fantastic! But i'd like to see one from Balkan Bulgarian... with the green and red livery. That would be a great looking bird aswell!

I personally think that NG is going backwards when it comes to the way they fit the nose gear in their 738s. I really do not like how prominent the nose gear looks which makes it look inaccurate. This reminds me of the first 738s that NG released which had the same issue, and one can tell that some of their latest 738s are starting to look like those. I believe the nose gear did not need to be fixed (if they are trying to fix it or make any adjustments) since it seemed to have the right height in my opinion.

NG, please fix the nose gear on your 738s to have the correct height.



This GOL B738 from the July 2022 releases had the same problem with the prominent nose gear (it is very noticeable)


The nose gear on this Copa B738 looks accurate

Both the gear itself and the gear door seem to have occasional fitting issues. Gear doors were mainly last year's problems -- which indeed have been improved -- however the gear itself became a bit inconsistent this year. Wonder what led them to changing what used to be already perfect.

Totally agree. I really hope they revert this.

Loving this set! I really like the Colorado Ones, Alaska, TU-154, and European offerings! November up next.
