Show Your Latest 1:400 Purchase

A couple of recent Taobao arrivals from C Models using the Panda 737-800. B-5688, Xiamen's 100th Boeing Aircraft, had previously been made by Phoenix in 2013 so I avoided that one. I see now NG have it as a future release :rolleyes: . There are better options for re-release Xiamen 737-800s. B-5515 wears the Yunnan Feather as it was operated by China Eastern Yunnan Airlines. As far as I'm aware this is the first ever release of this livery on the 738.

Beautiful models and the most realistic 737 cockpit windows in the game. Probably the best 737 mold imo.
 
Another new arrival of mine. It’s a Jet-X USAir MD82 in the 80s era livery. This is normally a type of model id never really got for but it was 22usd total including shipping so why the hell not. That’s basically like getting a free model nowadays🤣. This is the second of this livery I own and can go next to my GJ MD82 for en eventual diorama.

A beauty! This mould looks much better than the current GJ mould, in my opinion.
 
That’s because it is Dragon Wings. Jet-x utilized their moulds for their releases.

Also notice the nose gear mod. Did you paint the gear hub that light gray? That’s not standard but looks better and like a mod I’d make 😂

It’s how the model came from ebay! If it’s not stock I don’t mind it as long as it’s accurate. what does the model normally look like?
 
My newest arrival is this albino Boeing 727-200... 100% 3D printed!
In my opinion, it looks wonderful! Another masterpiece fully made by my friend Jonas here in my city. I've ordered it blank because it will be easier to make some virtual customs for my airport 😆

Wow, the first 400 scale 727 that actually looks like a 727!
 
Despite a strong sales effort, including a nationwide tour, from the Brits the BAC One-Eleven only made two sales in Australia as both Ansett and TAA preferred the DC-9. The two sales went to the RAAF, who acquired a pair of series 200s that arrived down under in early 1968 and joined 34 Squadron for VIP duties. Registered A12-124 and A12-125 they served until 1990 when they were sold back to the UK. As with many One-Elevens in the 90s they went to Nigeria and joined Okada Air. Both aircraft were withdrawn around December 1997.
