Finally got around to buying the GJ Delta 757-200 in the Widget livery. This was one of my most sought-after aircraft/livery combinations, and this model does not disappoint. This is an amazing plane :). It's also hard to believe that this December marks the 40th year of the 757-200 at Delta, and they will probably be flying for another 5 to 8 years.

I'm excited to get the current livery 757 without winglets next month to join this model and my NG Delta 757.

New arrival here:

DeAgostini
Boeing 767-300 JAL - JA8988


Found it super cheap on AliExpress, so I got myself two. They'll be custom donors and will become this and this :)
I'm surprised about the quality. These DeAgostinis are mostly pretty crappy, with some ugly moulds, incorrect gear sizes and poor printing.
Richard have lots of reviews about them. Some are decent, some are not.
However, this 767 have a very nice mould shape. Of course, it's outdated by today's standards, but looks a lot like Gemini or BigBird in the 2000s.
The only bad thing IMO are the too small cockpit windows. Won't be a problem for me, since these will be replaced during the custom process.
Another drawback is the engine seam, but it looks quite faint and I can live with it. I also don't mind the cradle mould and lack of antennas.

If someone wants to keep it in JAL colors, put on a new cockpit window and it's good to go! :cool:

My Turkmenistan flight went well and these are the very first models I received at my new place - all Airbuses. They were sold without original box so I did not have high hopes that they would survive the transportation process - and 2 of them did. These were sold as a bunch in a so-called "convoy. I will just share them briefly with you!

The whole convoy itself. The major hit was the A340 World Ranger - which I need some glue to stick the front gear back. One of the Beluga got a missing tyre as well - while the tyre on the other side was broken with the mount inside - some glues would be great. But all in all I was happy for the price I paid (it is the lowest price that I paid - surprised!)

The baby Airbus Corporate Jet ACJ319in the 2nd livery edition - the first one was the blue tail with early DW big big gears and thick struts. The later version is painted grey-ish (and that scheme also came in the form of A319neo I got at home).

The beautiful Rainbow A300 with "Fly-by-wire" titles.

The earliest Beluga Super Transport livery on this no. 3.

The previous scheme worn by no. 1 and 3.

And finally - this might be the highlight of my purchase - a promotional A300 model for German market (?), which is actually 1:400 when I compared it with the Fly-by-wire model. Would you like more shots of it?

That's all for today and I hope you enjoyed them!
