Default A340-600 1:200 at Cathay Pacific Online Shop!

Apologies if this has already been posted, but upon searching I couldn't find anything. I wanted to let you all know (and partially in response to this thread) that Cathay Pacific is now offering their A340-600 model separate from the special package deal they were bundling it with earlier.

Is now the time to add an Airbus to my collection? Decisions decisions.

Very nice, I will be sure to get it. I still remember the pleasant transpacific flight I had on one of their -600s in 2003.

Friends of mine went to the CX ticketing office at 10/F., Penisula Office Tower in HK yesterday that the CX lady @ the counter said she had never sold the 1:200 A340-600 on a stand alone basis before but only bundle together with the Christmas Hamper, can anyone verify this...?

I purchased by on-line shopping instantly. Since it is a very wonderful model, do I recommend absolutely?

Do these come unglued like Hogan, or glued like Herpa?

Wow, that bird is loooooong; I think I'd need to get a new bookshelf just to display it!

It'd be worth it though.

too bad the engine pylons lack some of the detail the lufthansa version carried!

looks a bit boring under the wings and IMO, but the rest is pretty good looking.
