Pretty nice!

Happy to have this nice trio with me!
Here are three TRANSBRASIL Boeing 767-200 non-ER models. These were the very first 767s of a Latin American operator, if i'm not mistaken. Delivered brand new in 1983.

These are custom models based on Dragon Wings donors, which I found very cheap on Ebay a while ago.
The custom work was done by a friend who lives in my city and who have done all my customs. It's incredibly handy to have a custom maker in your city!!!

I really love the colorful wings of these birds, something quite rare to see. I can only think of Lufthansa, Braniff, BalairCTA, Condor (special scheme "Rizzi Bird") and maybe some VVIP operators? Who else had fully painted wings?

I'm very pleased with these models! The original Transbrasil 767 pack was also originally released by JC Wings many years ago and sadly have become very rare... and expensive! I've found this trio on Ebay right now, but look at that price... no way i'll pay that. I'll stick to my custom models, which fortunately cost me waaaay less!!!

Pretty nice! Northeast airlines in America also had their wings painted in yellow.

Nice work on those customs...I believe Ansett also had fully painted (white) wings & stabs on their 767-200s

Nice memory, guys! Indeed i've seen these two before but couldn't remember them while writing the post. Northeast was really cool with the yellow wings.

Very nice! very good job on the wings, they look sharp! I have also considered customizing hard-to-find examples, but so far I have always been able to find them for good prices in the end.

Nice work on those customs...I believe Ansett also had fully painted (white) wings & stabs on their 767-200s

They sure did, I bought a damaged Ansett 727-200 one time to make a SAETA custom and remember how. frustrating it was that the wings and horizontal stab were white... way to add complexity to an otherwise straightforward project.

Crossair MD-80s also come with white wings...

Very nice customs Leo! DW mould appears to be more modern with JC with the seamless wing. Also very colorful wings too.

One more from the Waffle sale. I passed on the recent BigBird/JC Supertanker release due to the reg. so I'm glad to have come across this older release of N470EV, with some GSE too. This is l/n 237, which also wore tail number N749WA (Viasa) hence my particular interest in this tail.

Darn I was sad I missed this one, but very happy to see that another collector will have it

It is in good hands, and yes, my success rate with the Waffle sales I'd say is about 40% (which is probably a good thing...)

Good find! Love to see how the Waffle collection sale has been benefiting us all with new models!

One of those models way outside my criteria. But every now and then I buy what comes along on ebay for a few euros. And I usually like it.

I can confirm this! Ansett not only had fully painted wings on their 767s, but also their A320s, 727s and some 747s!

Icelandair 757-200 TF-FIV from NG Models

What a beauty, congrats! This is a stunning model!

Another UPS 752 has arrived into the collection!


All that is missing is the P&W/Current livery which hasn't been made yet.

 

[Atlspotter]

It is. Round 12 just came in, apparently, there is over 2000 models in this sale alone!

I was just looking through the first page, some amazing models for really cheap!
Edit: I couldn’t help myself, I bought a Gemini Jets Finnair A321 OH-LZL in the Standard 2010 colors. I got it because I saw it in a shop in New York, but couldn’t get it. Also good for my European airport project!
