I'm really lovin' the 787 in house colors! I just received the Herpa 787-8 in house colors in 1/200 scale. Looks like I'll be getting it in 1/400 as well.

It is the Royal New Zealand Air Force, with the markings used Pacific theater (and adaption of the US start and bar for better identification purposes)

And a big yes.. YES... (expletive)YES!!!

The Catalina is in the one owned by New Zealand Warbirds flying joy rides and doing the airshow circuits ZK-PBY / NZ 4017.

Shame it is missing its sponsors titles "Mainfreight".

How's Herpa's 1:400 mould? Is it OK? Are the wings metal? I have only one Herpa - B733 and i think the wings are plastic.

What a dissapointing release.

Dreamliner 787, Im tired of these 787's. Why don't they give us current excisting airlines/airliners. Seems alot of them gets RET, RTL or change Operator.
Oh and that 757 plastic nose gear just begs to fall and break.
