Zinc Rot, What is it?

[Charter]

Look at this drama: Big Bird (of course!) China Airlines B747-400 with completely destroyed tail fin. It seems to resist thanks to...who knows? With a small needle i put super glue among the cracks with the hope to make it stronger. The fact is that this Is a very rare model.



So, when the manufacturers present their production with the word "quality", which quality? This quality? And Big Bird, like Aeroclassics, had prices higher than, respectively, Herpa 1:500 and 1:400! For these results.

Hate to tell you, but that's not a Big Bird / Aeroclassics. Looks more like an old GJ or PX

it is a Big Bird, but in 1:500 scale actually

Ahhh that's possible, hadn't considered that! I'm not knowledgeable enough in 500 scale to recognise that for sure
