It's so purdy but I still wanna widget.

Thanks Russell! The nose and cockpit windows look spot-on! I continue to be impressed with the moulds and level of detail of Gemini200s, despite a few QC issues.

I notice your copy doesn't have any antennas, so it's just a sample?

Also, are the stands any different from the previous releases?

The GJ 757 mould is excellent... Too bad I don't collect Delta airliners (sorry Randy), I have most of the GJ releases, but I am sooo looking forward on the next to come 757's....

I want it even more! Somehow I am thinking of that Britney Spears song Gimme More when I saw the photos. Nice! This is making me think of Herpa without the antennas.

I hear ya there. Bring on the Conti 757! It'll be my fourth CO 757 in 1:200 (SJ -200, HG -200WL and -300 are the 3 I've got now), but definitely the nicest. Here's to hoping it's next month...

How do you already have this. Or should I say how are you connected to GJ

It's all in the family

....Some brotherly connection I believe, right Crownvic!

Love that Alitalia in there somewhere!

SO, refresh my memory, are the gj200 wheels the same as gj250- in that they retract into the fuselage and feature moving gear doors. Or are they similar to hogan, with removable gear? This looks excellent

Russell,

Nice collection as always.

The pics are fine from 1 to 6, thereafter you need to hold the camera steady so that they don't come out blurry.

Gear is removeable all as one piece, not retractable...

IKONOS · 04-01-2008, 08:55 AM

I'm in agreement with Mike777 - the overall nose shape and cockpit placement look excellent! Especially evident in your first picture.

I hope Gemini still has plans for an Eastern variant!

Thanks for sharing the pictures!
