Can I ask whether your stand fits into the Garuda? I received one of the Qantas 737's, and the hole in the aircraft is a circle, however the stand is a rectangle, so it is practically uselessKAL 747-400 (HL7488) by SQ. These are the closet things to Herpa Premium in 2025, nothing in 1:200 or 1:400 matches the level of detail. Also a breath of fresh air for someone who’s been stuck with subpar KALs for years.
Garuda 737-800 (PK-GMM) by NG. No mould issues, detailed engine fans, and properly fitting/rolling gears are welcome improvements over JC/IF. Is the detailing quite as nutty as SQ? No. But they’re outliers, I’d say this is well worth the money.

There’s a translucent plastic clip included with the landing gear that attaches to the rectangle. The wings slide into that clip.Can I ask whether your stand fits into the Garuda?

How do you like SQ wings? I only just discovered them and I'm trying to gauge where they fall compared to JC Wings and Inflight.KAL 747-400 (HL7488) by SQ.

Hi
For me SQ a bit higher than JC Wings, but classic Inflight is the best. I have a lot of 747 Inflight and they still hold up. Solid models.

That Kal 744 looks awesome! Does SQ have intention to get into 1:400? We could use another quality rendering of Her Majesty. The nose and brow region of this SQ version seems spot on.KAL 747-400 (HL7488) by SQ. These are the closet things to Herpa Premium in 2025, nothing in 1:200 or 1:400 matches the level of detail.

We already have that, HX is produced by the same factory. Their releases have been more sparse however.That Kal 744 looks awesome! Does SQ have intention to get into 1:400? We could use another quality rendering of Her Majesty. The nose and brow region of this SQ version seems spot on.
