I am going to see how will the VS A346 looks like. The AA chrome B763 and LTU A333 also looks tempting to me.

TU-154's ET MD-11F as well for me....

 

[Mikeymag]

I'm interest in the American 763.

 

[Jazajia]

Very happy with the AA763 in the delivery colors. I have a DW version of it, but will gladly get a fresh Phoenix version, their 767-300 is top-notch. The GJ version is so hard to find.

Fantastic release set. That LTU A333 has been on my wishlist since long. As usual, been pestering NG for that since quite some time! Those Balkans are gorgeous too. And a surprising Lufty A342 and that AA 763 - these 2 defo coming my way along with the LTU!

Here is the list with the regs. I'm really happy that half of the releases are what I requested haha

Your inbox is going to get bombarded with requests

At this rate Phoenix is going to become one of the most prominent brands in my collection. Most of my model budget this year is now in Phoenix's bank account.

Wow a Lufthansa A342! Have to contact my local retailer to get one for me.
A bit suprised by the choice of airlines for the 2 77W - re-releases on BA and THAI! I ain't too annoyed though as I have got the previous versions on my hand at a very reasonable price and is significantly cheaper than what new PHX would cost

 

[Mark22]

Phoenix really has the best releases. Good variety in geography, airlines and aircraft. Modern and retro too, amazing!

I agree, it's just too bad that there 747 mould is soo bad.
I mean that EL AL 742 in the final livery was and still is extremely tempting for me to complete my EL AL 742 collection

 

[LeoMuse747]

Phoenix once again doing a stellar job with these liveries... good variety and also a good mix between classic and modern.

The American 767 is going to be a beauty, I might consider adding that one to my wishlist.
The LTU A330... so nice! Herpa's version is too outdated, NG didnt release it and I highly doubt they will... so this Phoenix version is the one.
And the Balkan Tu-154 duo, absolutely great.

 

[Jazajia]

They are up on the DiMA dataabase. Seeing the pictures of the subjects made me realize there are a couple more of interest to me. I missed that the LH A343 is old colors (only read "Eurowhite"...) not sure if I will replace my DW version though. And there is a Drukair A320 right there first on the list. The first Drukair diecast model ever released. Not in my criteria, but an airline that interests me a bit.

Apologies for causing confusion
But I think the LH A340 was an A342 not a A343 judging from the reg. announced

 

[abdulmohiuddin]

Lord that Iran Air 747-200 is tempting, it's a model that flew to Karachi back in the day. Shame it's on the funny Phoenix mould, which retails for $90 over here in Canada.

It is a -200. Thanks. My bad.

 

[Danio1988]

BA 773 for me. A new reg to add to the fleet

 

[OscarBravo992]

Nothing for me, but I have to say that Phoenix are really standing out with their release choices. Seems like they're capitalising on everyone else's lack of diversity, and I'm all for it! Let 2023 onwards be known as the golden era of Phoenix!

it's not a golden era of PH as long as they dont fix their 747s.
but tbh so far for this month, PH stands out in terms of releasing choices, JC/GJ is quite mundane, now only left with NG and av400 to announce. lets see what they got.

If we won't see NG 747-8 mould this month it would be extremely annoying and disappointing

 

[VDH.FliesOut]

The Virgin A340-600 is soo tempting, I might get it
