Don't tell me DW is gonna re-release this one as where the trend is going????

We are already flooded with so many "new" releases and now we are starting to get flooded with "re" releases...Not good.

I do not see Dragon Wings rel-releasing this one. Singapore Airlines do not want any Tropical made.

I guess if Singapore Airlines see this one by Tucano, they could be done for!

Should we report this to Singapore Airlines? then SQ take the law on Tucano.

C'mon, they've already released the ANAs, ANZ LOTR's, Nalanji, GF 50th, Cathays without licensing, what can stop them from releasing the SIA Tropical???...

It is because none of us previously report this issue to those airlines. We should help to keep the low price as well as quality on our hobby.

Unfortunately I don't think Dragon would ever re-release this bird. But since I missed out on the original one, if DW did make it again, I would be one happy dude.

Dragon released both -SPL and -SPK; -SPL as a regular release, -SPK as a Singapore Airlines corporate.

I have no f*ckin' idea what Tarnished Wings/Turdcano is gonna release.

Default TO TUCANO/GOLDEN WINGS

This post is dedicated to the people who are involved behind GOLDEN WINGS & TUCANO (and i know they roam around in this forum):

1. Please stop wasting your cash on producing inaccurate crrrrrap, rather, why not donate the huge sums of investment to the red cross, or the salvation army, for example. Tucano, i know you blokes speak and write poor english, so therefore i REPEAT:What you guys producing are unlicensed, unrealistic, pieces of CRAP. If you are trying to grab a foothold in the die-cast marketplace, please do your research. We collectors are rather high-demanding thesedays, Dragon and gemini jets are the two brands we TRUST.
2. By producing unlicensed models, you will be dicked for it. Say, Tucano, do you reckon you're too 'hot' to be touched by QANTAS' lawyers? HA! Goodluck in trying to escape! Golden wings...QANTAS will be knocking on your doorstep pretty soon. Well you know what? you people deserved being dicked! Hope you guys go BROKE, so collectors will not see another out of scale die cast model again.

Did you know that their German Airforce TU-154 they are releasing (11+02) is the one that collided in mid-air with a C141 a couple of years ago?
