Alaska has three different Disney liveries. There's the one you posted above, Tinkerbell, and the livery that shows the Genie from the film Aladdin. And the Phoenix website is not coming up in my searches.

While (somewhat) on the subject of Alaska, I wonder if we'll be seeing a model of this one?

You're not the only one crossing your fingers for that one. I've flown on that aircraft and want a model of it.

I don't care which one it will be as long as the Alaska jet is colorful.

I got a different information saying that Alaska is 1/200, but Virgin Blue is 1/400.
Correct me if I'm wrong...

So it appears. Well, let's hope the AS Disney is 200 scale.

I for one do not miss having a diecast 777 or any other widebody other than my sole IF200 PAA 741 and the new JCW SV Tristar. Those things would be so heavy that shipping costs alone would be astronomical not to mention the lack of fine intricate detailing that you can only find on plastic models and not metal.

GJ200 is using a lighter Aluminum diecast so shipping cost will be less compared to the heavy Zinc diecast.

I wont argue with you since you haven't own any GJ200 models yet. If ever GJ makes the heavies it will be considerably lighter.
