Yet you somehow missed them too.Read the first three rules. They’re in all caps. Even a 1st grader couldn’t miss them.

Did the facts hurt your feelings?Yet you somehow missed them too.
Regardless there’s no need to gang up on anyone for their preferences. Just my two cents.
Never said you broke the rules. The comment you made was crass. An interest in seeing different configurations released is neither bizarre nor something that other people don’t care about. Moderators are held to a higher standard too, that means staying impartial. Hence injecting your opinion by attacking someone’s interest is out of line.Ok that's enough you two.
Additionally, I am also tired of the rules of the forum being used against people making statements that aren't breaking them. It is the administrators who will decide what behaviour warrants action because we are the ones putting the effort in and doing all the work. If you have an issue raise it with us in the personal messages.
Saying 'have a bizarre love for different configuration models that nobody else gives a monkey's about.' is not breaking the rules. It is not a personal attack it is a statement of fact about his interest in models born out by plenty of his posts, and my opinion of whether configuration models are of importance to collectors. It isn't aggressive, it isn't rude really either.
Saying 'If only you spent half that effort trying to find a gf “swagninja”' as you did and I deleted @ghqv2988 is personal and rude. Actually you have been the main one breaking the rules here on this thread and are continuing your grumpiness about NG over from the June thread into this one.
Frankly @swagninja84 hasn't really been trolling he's been making some quite decent, if pointed, replies to things people have said. Could he have been nicer - maybe yes, but some of those people he responded to could equally be accused of trolling the entire thread, with their grudge against NG for not doing what they want them to do.
I think he was conveying the opposite but I could be wrongI'd think these B-focused sets are clearly a response to the fervent backlash NG has been receiving in China - with the home market collectors complaining that they've not been releasing enough Chinese material - as @miaoyimiaozhongl was mentioning in another thread.
So I'd actually cut NG some slack, as they're clearly stuck between the devil and the deep sea, as the proverbial saying goes.
Can we all like... talk about little metal planes in peace pleeassseeee![]()
Thank you for the recommendation, but I am not considering Aviation400 products. For personal reasons, apart from Emirates Airlines, other products from this brand are not my first choice at the moment.
Will there be a 1:400 version?
Is this a Juneyao in-flight exclusive or will it be available in stores?

Bizarre love for configs? We are all different and not every collectors in this community share the exact same aviation passion. Some came here because they simply like anything that fly and don’t even care about the model they hold in their hand as long as long it is plane or helicopter. These people won’t understand your love for an aircraft over another, the missing wifi-domes or even your preference for a scale from another… Some came here from their planespotting passion and are interested in getting the models they are used to spot at their home airport. Some are pilot who want to have the type they are rated on, some are flight reviewers... There are collectors who just care about special liveries. Some others have preferences for specific types or airlines and some may have more specific criteria like configurations or even registrations… We all have different preferences when it comes to choosing are requesting models and everyone should be free to express their opinion without being criticised by anyone.Plus you have a bizarre love for different configuration models that nobody else gives a monkey's about.
There is not "a way you should see it". Everyone as its opinion which may change a bit depending on the subject and context. In case there was any issue of understanding, I usually in favor of considering different configs (like you say: "my bizarre love for configurations") but when there is a noticeable difference between them or when there is demand from collectors. In the case of the ANA 78X, I wouldn’t judge the choice of NG of realising 2 times two same config if:Because your point is the usual 'oh look NG make all these duplicate releases isn't it bad' as opposed to the way you should see it 'NG is splitting a production batch into 3 or 4 giving collectors options and saving themselves money'.

In the case of the ANA 78X, I wouldn’t judge the choice of NG of realising 2 times two same config if:
- they would have only released one model per config
- they would have released highly requested models before considering duplicating the same config twice on a 78X and releasing 4 retired L-1011
Also please avoid saying "I’m only mad because they don’t release the model I want" because it should be more "I’m mad because they release 4 times the same model before considering more requested models that more people want"
I agree with @LeoMuse747 we are moving on as I have asked multiple times.We all have different preferences when it comes to choosing are requesting models and everyone should be free to express their opinion without being criticised by anyone.
Thank you. This back and forth is getting really boringLet's keep the thread back in line. This discussion must end here.

It's now listed on the NG website and shows 'sold out'I assume this isn't advertised more widely because of the livery and licensing just like the recent Xiamen 737. I would expect we will see it in 400 scale too.
