Default Eastern 757 came in yesterday

Just in time for my birthday (22nd) I stopped at the hobby shop and my buddy had this there in the case. So I had to have it and after inspection took it home.

Here she is.

The best looking 757.
What a pity that Eastern has disappeared.

Those Gemini models are great....but when you compare them to the Hogan, they also seem a lot more prosperous....they appear a bit longer, thicker and of course a lot more heavier in comparison to the Hogan counterparts...

The model is awesome, it was the packaging that had me nervous. Pulling and tugging gears out of tight cut out spots.

Yes, I had some difficulty with them, too. I ended up removing the foam from the box, and pushing up from the bottom.
