Both models are not perfect but here we can really see what Aeroclassics is able to make: a complete disaster especially on the shade of green in Alitalia tail logo, and a wrong shade of grey/silver.
Gemini has a better shade of light grey/silver even if with glitters, but the Alitalia green Is similar to the real airplane and the light green would be right but starts too high on the tail logo. Even "Alitalia" written is wrong but in Aeroclassics model Is a disaster too.
So, both models wrong but Aeroclassics seems a piece of "modern Art" despite than a diecast model!
 
This time, Mach Birdz and HX collaborated to launch Qantas 5-engine 747.

Two holes on the underside of the wing allow for easy installation or removal of engines, enabling it to be configured as a 5-engine or 4-engine aircraft.

The only drawback is that the fifth engine is a standard engine and lacks a separate design.

The first of many Christmas models has landed and it's this beautiful Fuji Dream Embraer 170 to get things going. As of right now, two of these birds should be sufficient, though I'll likely add more if they come up for a good deal.
