Default Great News from the Original BigBird400

Finally I am hoping, we get the China Airlines B747-200 and cargo version OC!! Along with the CX 747-200s' NC (Passenger/Cargo/Cargo Polished Version). No pictures here!! But may be some over there

I wonder if they'll screw up these with funky Cathay Pacific titles like they have past releases...and to call other manufactures "money grabs" ...

A rhetorical question right? Well lets see you'll either be told it's non of your business or BBX is selling unlicensed junk. Besides I think Herpa have the market covered very well.

Actually from what I have read license is TOP PRIORITY over at the other side and it's a tough shot to get one from CX. With BB400 surely the products would be license, right?

Yes. Ditch the previous release (from Phoenix?) because the picture of the model looked bad.

Hey, looks like CX has more than 1 silver bullet. B-HIH and B-HMD both spot the same look I think.

I assume your being rhetorical, because we know the truth here.

It depends if you are refering to the original BB or the Kermit's bird.
