Default Risesoon Model Update

Risesoon Has Just Listed Their Model Update Number 2.

I Hope The Qantas B707 Classic Is Like John Trovolta's.

Get the Hogan. It has a few more details and better landing gears.

Did you check the MAS temptation website?
Heard they're not top service, but I have no experience dealing with them, maybe you're lucky and it comes cheaper. MAS sourced their models from Hogan, so I am not sure what's the legal status of the RS version, much less if it's accurate or not.

Get the FOS 772 soon, that plane along with Hibiscus will be painted regular corporate scheme soon, so MH will not be selling the models anymore either...

By all means check the MAS website. I paid U.S. $41 for mine and I bought it from them.

Except those dark grey cockpit windows in the midst of all the FOS Blue makes it look terrible!

It took almost 6 months for me to get my models... after I had forgotten and just accepted the fact that no MAS models were to be in my collection, then one day, out of the blue, they arrived!!

(your friend has suffered more, I thought I was the one!! feel better now! )

If I got one, I would get Travolta to autograph it. I can find him and get him to sign the wings.

I belive that the Hibiscus Hogan 747 from MAS temptations has been sold out. Maybe same case with Heliconia 777 as these are only limited productions.

I ordered mine through tempations when they were 1st realease without any problems.

I suggest you give them a call to find outs what's wrong.

Tried calling as well, they don't answer the phone. I'm glad I got all of mine when I did.
