Question about NG Models

Hi everyone,
A week ago I received my first NG Model, which was an Icelandair 737 Max 9 in their new livery, in the 1:400 scale. However, I noticed that it was very similar to the Gemini Jets Southwest 737-800 that I have. I'll include a picture of the comparison. Are all NG models in the 1:400 scale the same size as Gemini Jets?

If they are all 400 scale (i.e. 400 times smaller than the real thing) then the same moulds for a type will match in size - or should. The size gap between a 800 and a MAX-9 isn't that large so they will appear very close. In this specific case the NG 737 MAX-9 is a far superior mould to the GJ 737-800 and it wouldn't surprise me given the general weakness of the GJ series 800 mould if it isn't 100% correctly scaled but I have no reason to think that is the case based on your image. They look fine.
