Show Your Latest 1:400 Purchase

Gemini Saab 340 Northwest Airlink. This old mould for the saab is great. I wonder why they changed it to the tundra tire version. Being there a lack of turboprop presence in 1:400, this is a great addition. I wish there were more turboprops available.

That one is a gem! The model represents circa mid-late 1990s condition in terms of the livery, by which time the Sri Lankan flag had been removed for whatever reason. It would have been present when originally delivered. I think the “TRISTAR” legend on the #2 was also bigger and bolder when originally applied.
Cheers for the inside scoop Alex!
 
After all the delays NG really throws some stunning 77E 😍 😍 😍

Comparing this release to the recent NG release AA "Oneworld" 77E in current colors20230812_211957.jpg20230812_212059.jpg20230812_211916.jpg
The Peter Max is truly worth the wait - hands down some of the best printings on top of a highly complex color scheme. The NYC2000 logos are so crisp that the small words below the statue of liberty are highly legible!:eek: Don't forget how many colors there are!:eek::eek:
The chrome AA also perfectly showcase what NG is capable of when handling bare metal liveries.
They would definitely be two great contenders for my "Model Of The Year" not gonna lie:LOL:

I must have been addicted to 777-200ER lately. :ROFLMAO:

A bit surprised that NG seems to be sitting on a tail-up posture whereas JC with it's taller nose seems to be level?
 
I wasn't aware DW had a Concorde mould. How does it compare to the others? Wish this aircraft flew in real life!

I have two DW Concordes, the other one being F-WSTA in the house colors. The latter sports a sharper/pointier nose, so it looks much nicer than this Pan Am. In both cases, the nose seems a tad short though. In some areas, it can be better than the GJ one. I think it also looks better than those cheap Socatec floating around eBay with the blunt nose.
