Show Your Latest 1:400 Purchase

My mailman has been busy the last three days with all the new models. He'll get a day off tomorrow 😅 anyways here's a new Frontier tail to the fleet. Wilbur the Whitetail was Frontier's first A320neo, and after seeing this on Waffle's collection sale I was super tempted. There's another one on the way too, it should be here on Monday.

Nice find! I paid $100 for my copy on Ebay awhile back. This collection sale practically had all the AC Frontier releases. Would love to see GJ or NG remake or release new tails

I’m gonna try to collect all the produced tails next year. It’ll be quite the stretch but we’ll see what happens.
 
Which tails do you have? I can lookout for the missing models and send over a DM if I ever encounter one.
So far I have:
- Grizwald the Bear by Gemini (227)
- Wilbur the Whitetail (301)
- Mia the Dolphin (311)
- Georgia the Painted Bunting (317)
- Ozzy the Orca (610)
- Steve the Eagle (709)
- Cubby the Bear (714)

I have one more tail from that same sale arriving tomorrow (310).
 
Got these 2 the other day
AV400 UAL B77W
NG UAL B763

Fortunately, the broken plane had clean breaks, so it was easy to fix. Also, the store I ordered this from was happy to help me out with this mishap

Never thought I’d be collecting something this old — a 2001 GeminiJets/Schuco British Airways Concorde G-BOAC. Picked it up for about USD 20 at current exchange rates. Box is in excellent condition, and the model is fine except for some minor removable dirt. Definitely one of the most unexpected additions to my collection recently.

A wide color palette landed today. Another new Frontier tail, Sunny the Collared Lizard, joins the fleet, marking my eighth tail out of 24 made; then Wildcat had a last-minute Christmas sale, so I snagged a JetBlue A321 Blueunity and Northwest 757-300 from them. This package wasn’t supposed to make it until after Christmas, but since I had it on Priority Mail it made it within a couple days.

The newest addition to my collection is this 3D Design Deck Nexus Airlines Dash-8 Q400 registered VH-8XS.

Nexus started operating in 2023 in the Kimberley and Pilbara regions of Western Australia with 5 of these and they currently have one more due.

And yes, this will be seen at North Queensland International
