I also expect what I got is the model as Tapemeister showed to us. I'll post pics after I get it.

blueodyssey · 03-07-2008, 05:10 AM

Hrmm there shouldnt be any logo on the engines rite.

Oh well i have the risesoon one.

Tapemeister · 03-07-2008, 06:13 AM

The 2nd batch delivered to SIA looks different from what is shown in the picture, with additiona imprinting and engine details.

superbou · 03-07-2008, 12:15 PM

Very good looking bird.
The price is not as expensive as I thought, because the current strengh of the euro.
Anyway could someone tell whether it's have a registration, please.

B-16707 · 03-07-2008, 12:45 PM

SGD shipped roughs out to $78. ill pass. not worth such a high price.

bioyuki · 03-07-2008, 03:17 PM

I'll be waiting for someone to get this as well to see if it looks like the one that Tapemeister posted.

Might buy the Qantas one in the meantime...so much cheaper...

etihad777 · 03-07-2008, 04:44 PM

This is mine gift from Singapore Airlines Istanbul Office

superbou · 03-07-2008, 05:13 PM

Great pics etihad777,
but I'm disppointed it doesn't have a reg

mjabbasi · 03-07-2008, 06:14 PM

Not that I want to buy SQ A380 but I wonder if my local SIA office might have one available.

so we're gonna have to wait for the first batch of hogans to sell out before getting these?

Flying Kangaroo · 03-07-2008, 06:22 PM

That's, along with an Emirates A380, are on my wish list. I really, really want those 2. But if I convert the SIA model into Aussie dollars it works out to be $102-00. Then you have your delivery... A bit too much for me.

mjabbasi · 03-07-2008, 06:35 PM

Will Hogan ever relese this as a retail model or is it only available through SIA?

Tapemeister · 03-08-2008, 02:54 AM

This was an older version ordered by SIA Marketing. Not the same edition as the ones being sold by KrisShop/SIA. The model is only available via KrisShop/SIA.

boeinglover · 03-10-2008, 02:54 AM

Hi Guys,

Just collected mine, bought it onboard the aircraft inflight sales. Same as Tapemeister's model, no engine logos. Lovely, one more A380 ( finally an accurate SQ A380 model ) to my collection. Packaging similar to MAS A380 box size and layout inside.

Hurray !!

B-16707 · 03-10-2008, 03:16 AM

and how much was it onboard? discounted? i know some airlines discount models bought inflight.

$78USD shipped is just too expensive if bought from krisshop and shipped for this model.

Hi: Could you take a photo of the box for me? I asked Krisshop about the engine logo but she said the model looks the same as the photo showed. I think I may have a photo to her for confirmation. Thanks!!

Diecaster · 03-10-2008, 11:49 PM

OK guys, here is the comparison of both the older Hogan version & the latest one:

The KrisShop Inflight Duty Free magazine was posting an older version.

The one they are selling on board with all the transparent sealed, I said if I open but not satisfy with the quality, can I exchange another one but they said no, once open it, you have to buy it, no matter the painted was falling off.

The flat box looks like Risesoon to me...

The back side of the box.

The older Hogan version.

The back side of the box older Hogan version.

& the thickness of this box looks like a regular Hogan A380 release, which is the similar size of Airbus A380 House Color, AF A380, QF A380 etc...

The 2 together for comparison, the top is the older one, the bottom is the current one. You probably notice the bottom current model has many windows covered up on both upper deck & the main deck, mainly for the toilets in between 2 sections of the deck.

As you can see the bottom current model has only 1 window after the last upper deck door.
The 9V-SKA registration printed at the bottom one (towards the rear of the aircraft, a bit hard to see)

Diecaster · 03-11-2008, 12:13 AM

As you can see the current one on the right got the windshield wiper on the cockpit window.

The left current model had more detail printed at the back of the APU.

You can also notice the current model at the bottom had the red fin painted on the wings, detail painted wings, no logos on the engines, & the engines were painted in grey instead of white.

The tail cheat line becomes horizontally cut off, detail coroguard at the wings.

The older version didn't painted the inner winglet.

The current model had winglet painted but a bit sloppy...

Old engines.

Current engines.

The older landing gear on the left, the current landing gear on the right with "KA" on the nose gear cover.

The older display stand on the left, the current display stand on the right.

Flight Director · 03-11-2008, 12:13 AM

There is another official model made for Singapore out there. I have one here in my collection, email me tomorrow and i will post photos. I have the official A380 in 1:200 and 1:400 - both in the inflight boxes. I believe these were the models given to those onboard the first flights..

mjabbasi · 03-11-2008, 01:23 AM

That packaging is identical to the type the MAS models come in. These is known as inflight boxes and are called as such to save space if ever carried on board the a/c.

smoothjazz · 03-11-2008, 01:27 AM

So let me get this correctly, the one being sold on KrisShop IS the new version? If yes, I would like to order one.

mjabbasi · 03-11-2008, 01:28 AM

Yes this newer/updated version is being sold by Krisshop on board the a/c AND online.

smoothjazz · 03-11-2008, 01:30 AM

Thanks Moin, Alright then, I should get one!
