NG Model 1:400 October 2025 Release Hint

100% agree about Delta, but we haven’t actually had an AA A319 on NG’s hardware yet
That's a fair point.

I wish Panda would use their A319/320 and 737-300/400 moulds more frequently to make classic US and European Airlines that have been neglected or which were only released decades ago on terribly outdated Gemini and AeroClassics moulds.

I have the Panda United Airlines Evo A319 in my collection and it easily rivals the NG mould in fidelity.
 
Could use a Ted release and America West releases too
There are so many 1990s and 2000s era US and European liveries that need to be redone for US and European carriers on modern moulds that surprisingly don't get enough attention.

Aer Lingus (shamrock) on 737s and 747; British Airways (Landor) on 777-200, 737s and A320s; Iberia (the orange/yellow band) on the A321; and of course all the US mains (United Battleship, Blue Tulip, Northwest Bowling Shoe, Southwest Desert Gold, US Airways, etc.).

I'd really like to see a 747-400 in the United Battleship grey livery on a modern mould (I'm excluding the atrocious Phoenix rendition released a few years ago).

Heck, even the final NWA livery would be nice
 
Hoping the 319 is NWA.
What I’m hoping for also, and I know I’m gonna get some criticism for this, is a Delta A319 N345NB. Still on a mission to get any and all tail numbers I’ve flown!

Probably very unlikely they do this specific reg given the possibility of it being the larger titles, of which 345 doesn’t have yet.
 
The Hawaiian planes are excellent choices. It’s great to see NG do these. The livery is simply beautiful.

I don’t remember if they were on the wishlist or not, but I’ll probably grab an A321neo and A330-200 in the standard livery.
yep they're both on the CRP wishlist - I'd voted for both of them
 
Solid release this month. My only complaint is the severe imbalance between Chinese planes and everything else, but at this point I’m beating a dead horse with that. Will consider the Delta A319 large titles and JetBlue Dunkin A320.
 
Was hoping for a Northwest but atleast this Delta has a valid difference for being produced again.

Personally, I don't find satisfaction in this one. They have already released 2 A319's in the last two years and this one has titles that are what? 10% bigger? They could have put this one off for a while.

I do have hope that because they are almost done with the entire fleet of xiamen and china southern by now we will see some more variety in the next releases

I agree. I am almost certain that upsized titles are just another excuse for NG to remake the Delta A319, and that this could have been shelved in favor of more unique and necessary releases. That being said, it is still different to some extent and therefore (to me) is worthy of a release, but would have been more appropriate to release after they've done some more important airplanes.

it's the first release ever of the larger titles A319 on 1:400? Makes perfect sense - it's unique, needs little editing to existing artwork, a lot of fleet builder collectors consider this an important detail worthy of release on the best available mould, besides there's a lot of demand for DLs - just like the smaller / larger titles on CX/AF wides etc
