Andy : that model is not offically out .


Great statistics !!

Andy

Its at least as officially out as the US Air Force 747 Laser Lab, or the Herpa Air India TriStar... Or indeed its as "officially out" as the Jet-X Alaska MD-80s that were in last month's poll.

my sentiments exactly

ba777-236

No, the Air Force Laser model is listed on Dragon's site and listed for pre-order on some online retailers. The same thing apply's to the HW Air India.

The Connie on the other hand has not been listed or seen anywhere, exept for the Numberg Toy Show of course.

Travis Campbell

It was listed in an advertisment in an aviation magazine along with the ABL, but has yet to be announced online and at retailers, like the Continental 757-300 was.

38???! 34???! All the liveries being released is fantastic but beyond the scope of most collectors financially...

In the ol' days not too long ago- maybe 7 GJ, 7 DW, 1-2 JX, 2-4 AC= 17-20 models/mo... it was feasible to get most of the "major" releases or at least maintain a complete collection of some selection. And there weren't any regular releases above $32us... And 99% of them were available through your regular retailer... Ah, memories...
