Gemini March releases

Hawaiian · 02-25-2008, 04:02 PM

And I thought the 1/250 line was dead.
Allegiant MD-83 and Delta MD-88

United Airlines DC-10 · 02-25-2008, 04:14 PM

I don't collect 1:250 scale but these models might change me...

gottols · 02-25-2008, 05:23 PM

Wow, this really is a surprice. I never thought we'd see those MD-80s again....

CitationDrvr · 02-25-2008, 05:37 PM

I'd like to go on the record as having never given up on 1/250 scale! I will be purchasing these gems!

crownvic · 02-25-2008, 07:58 PM

I told you a few more domestics were coming!

That you did, Crownvic! That you did! I'm a happy camper.

MDWTWA · 02-25-2008, 09:14 PM

Definitely getting the Delta.
Probably getting the Allegiant too.

Wow!! And I was trying to get out of this scale!!!

B-16707 · 02-25-2008, 10:33 PM

wow gemini really still in this 250 game?

sammyk · 02-26-2008, 03:06 AM

I'll be getting these. I've collected all the other 1/250 Gemini and Phoenix releases so gotta get these too.

Wonder why GJ is still doing this 1/250 line after they've started a 1/200 line? Defies logic, if you as me.

Because the mould is long paid for..Believe it or not these models do tend to sell quite well, and the airlines ordered them to sell in their respective company stores... I would suspect you will see more MD-80s down the road but no new moulds in this scale...

Well..you guys still have the 737, DC-8 and DC-3 molds, correct? If they are all paid for, the you'll probably want to blow the cobwebs off of those molds too! Don't get me wrong, I am absolutely pleased with the March selection, so I'm not whining at all! Thanks, GJ guys.

Hey CV, I had heard rumors of an A300 mold about a year ago or so.
Has that project been abandoned now?

crownvic · 02-26-2008, 09:31 PM

nah just a rumor...no A300

centaur747 · 03-01-2008, 11:35 AM

Love it! Now for some BWIA, ALM, AIr Aruba, Avianca, Aeromexico oc, Aerolineas, TWA oc and nc, Northwest oc, REPUBLIC, REPUBLIC, REPUBLIC!

GliderPilot · 03-01-2008, 03:34 PM

Any chance of a Delta widget MD-88?

Aviaction · 03-02-2008, 04:59 AM

Bit too late with these. I have already given up on 1/250.
Probably won't be long before we see similar schemes in 1/200. so all a bit pointless.
Shame really because the DC8 'stretch' was still one of the finest, until IF200 bought one out.

i thought it was dead too Hawaiian but look it there they hav some new bad boys maybe they will put Alitalia in their new colors

psalover · 03-02-2008, 08:01 PM

The only down fall to these is the fact that they waited so long to release these, that some of us sold our 1/250's, and gave up on this scale. I loved them, but could'nt wait any longer. I used the money to buy 1/200 GJ's. Well, they did get my money twice. good for them, and yes, these lood nice. Now, we need a 1/200 MD-80 series
