It looks like there's no trapdoor to hide the landing gears holes

there is actually, inside box provided the trapdoor pieces which I didn't put on. but it's quite small to handle as well.

they provided these pre-cut tape for you to stick the gears/doors. would prefer if it's magnetic.

That’s a very interesting method as it’s not reusable…

Yet another new acquisition to fill my Middle Eastern collection, the NG Models Kuwait Airways A330-200 9K-APD, from the second run of Kuwait A330's in 2023.
Lovely little model, the NG A330 mould is very nice. The scheme has a nice retro feel to it, reminding me of the schemes of the 80's. This release doesnt have any of the stickers on the rear fuselage, keeping it clean. The stickers had previously dissuaded me from purchasing the earlier batch from 2021, as the clean fuselage appeals to me a bit more. Only issue I can really see is that the windowline sits a slight bit too high but it's not too noticeable thankfully. Gives me a wonderful representative of Kuwait for my collection.
Rather humorously, the model took only 14 hours to arrive from British Columbia to Ontario, a cross country speed run. The fastest I have ever had an order fulfilled(not even the retailers in Toronto have been able to match this speed). Thank you Dan from West Coast Diecast!

The 747 nlg seems much better in length in this photo, compared to how they appear in the official PT photos
And that 764 is a banger. The engines still point skyward though, and does the nlg appear longer than it should? Or is the main gear too short?

I've recently picked up a couple of more obscure releases from China. First is a new brand called GP Model who have made a pair of Fuwa Beijing 2008 Olympics. I picked up B-5176. It uses the Panda Models mould.
Also added with the last package from China was the collaboration between Creating Dreams Wings and C Models Juneyao Airlines Airbus A320Neo B-324C with the Juneyao Werdery special scheme. Juneyao Grand Healthy Drinks Co Ltd is a China-based company mainly engaged in research, development, production and sales of normal temperature lactic acid bacteria drinks.

Good lord there's a lot of these pop-up brands to keep track of. Nice little models, the Juneyao is particularly nice and colorful. C Models would mean that that's the Panda tooling?
Yes that's right
