Was that for both of them at 95USD, or was that for each? They are not shown there anymore. Did someone here order them? That is about 5USD more than the current highest price Phoenix at ToysKingToys - the Singapore A380-800. There are six 1/400 Phoenix models for pre-order, but instead of "Thai A380 with King Logo," they list "Airbus House Color A380" for some reason. Which one is correct? They also list the 1/200 Singapore B787-8 for pre-order. I don't yet see the US Air B737-400 listed there.

ToysKingToys.com - Phoenix Cathay Pacific B777-300ER B-KPA

That's the standard livery CX B773ER link.

As for the new upcoming A380, my understanding is that it is the house colours version, but with the Thai logo on it.

Glad to see PH use the new B744 mould again. However I am only interested in standard liveries. I am still hoping for a SQ, QF, LH, CA, CL or BA B744s.

That 747 mould is terrible when you see it in person.
Needs some work before it comes close to DW then GJ.

I agree they look bad but they are nice choices. All the inboard engines seem to low because of the angle on them. They have the Jet X A310/A300 syndrom

Lets hope the finished ones are better.

I really like its seamless joints of the wings and the rolling gear. The metal landing gear is nicely moulded as if the plastic could do.

I'm all for corporate schemes, but if one is fleetbuilding the airlines, they could do just fine too. An A380 with a "thai logo" is not that appealing to buy it though.

I got the Boeing Test aircraft on my list.

The SIA 787 for me I think.

.... along with a lot of others I mean!

Real.
I believe this is the correct Thai logo which was applied and how the 380 arrived in Thailand for it's inaugural visit there.

Refer MyAviation photo reference 01000447. That pic shows the Thai logo on the forward left of the fuselage.

Of course, to be the proper Thai version, it would need to have the winglets removed wouldn't it?

But yeah... this is a real A380, or was.

These new Phoenix haven't been added to the Model Database - I can't add the Qantas F1 to my want list!

The word onsite at Windy Road this morning was that the
Mona Lisa did not make it along with everything else which
has arrived and is shipping from ADI today.

Mona Lisa expected next month.

Well Tell You What. It Will Prolly Be Better Than The Gemini.
I Got The Tucrappo Model. Model Flawed Everywhere. Despite That It Blows The Gemini Away.
Though The Big Bird Is The Best Mould, But The Red Is Dark & Dull. Matter Of Fact All The Colors Are A Bit Dull On The Big Bird.
I Had All 3 At One Time.
I'd Say The Phoenix Is Not Bad. Re-Tooled Tucrappo Mould.
