Show your Latest 1:200 Purchase

Good choice for a first model. Esp. the E-7 with all these small antennas/sensors has a lot of details that are easier to replicate in the larger scale.
Yes! They look more realistic in this scale. I would buy more if I had more space, currently got 120 1:400 models already taking up the cabinet space! But might get some 1:200 models on rare occasions.
 
just picked this baby up from MTS today. first time in their store and i was thoroughly impressed and frankly overwhelmed by the options. ultimately decided to go with this to fill a gap in my collection.
Awesome you had the opportunity to visit.. Been trying to make my way there myself. You visit the USAF Museum while in town?
 
My second 1:200 model! This one is a Delta Connection CRJ100ER N498SW (Skywest).

It wore this scheme from 2001-2003 for the 2002 Salt Lake City Olympics. If I ever grab the other CRJ (ASA N869AS) that would complete the full range of 2002SLC aircraft in my collection with the 1:400 757, 777, and now this CRJ!
 
soon? no. eventually? absolutely. I’ll wanna get my 200 scale models up to about 5-10 before I really try my hand at it. I need some models in hand to visualize spacing and proper scale of these things. It threw me off how “big” this CRJ200 is🤣
That would be awesome to see you make one. I enjoyed making Ironwood more then I did my 400 stuff because of the detail.
