With a bit of delay...
My PSA TriStar arrived as expected, given NG didn't use a proper cradle for this one: The lower reverser rail had no room in the cradle and broke...
Can be fixed but annoying nontheless.

Mine came broken too with the same exact issue... I returned it for one that wasn't broken, and I know of many people with the same issue due to the cradle.
 
I got 2 arrivals today!

First one is the NG Air China 747-400 B-2445. The front of the model looks... weird. I'd say the NLG feels high, but overall not a bad model.View attachment 51311View attachment 51312View attachment 51313View attachment 51314

Next one is the Northrop Grumman L-1011 N140SC. It’s beautiful in any way. Also, I haven’t tried taking off the missile, it looks as if it can but I feel like I would break it.

Mind if I ask you to send some photos of the cradle that this model came with? I am interested to know what NG has done for this model
 
Not sure if you can see my pics - I can't - but here's another arrival.
This one's destined for the workbench. HX's Clipper Storm King.

And just for the fun to highlight the bling bling nacelles, I removed the light diffusors for this one:

Perfectly focused photo of this beauty, and this is even more difficult when the subject is oblique and the focus, the light and everything else have an angle to work with.
Well done

Yes the same with mine - fortunately though the entire conical assembly was dislodged, and nothing broken. I did notice though it had a socket or a notch - so inserted it, took the (terrible blurry) photos, and removed it before putting the model back into the cradle.

Postman knocked my door today, Oh boy was he welcomed. 4 new models arrived to my airport.

Air Holland B757-200 PH-AHE from NG for my 90's dioramas. Was on sales so not expensive at all.

SAS A320-232 OY-KAR since I'm a SAS collector. A bit worried about JC's cockpit printing and need to fix one main gear. But SAS is SAS.

Lufthansa B747-400 D-ABVY from XX models (made by HX models). Pleased with it.

Lovely arrivals! Love the Jumbos.

About the Air Holland 757, quite funny how I sometimes come across this model being sold for a low price. Meanwhile, the LTU Sud 757 released by NG is much more difficult to find in a good price. I have the Air Holland 757 with Dinar titles, it's a wonderful model for sure. NG 757s are always stunning :love:
