Default A lovely B772
Thanks to gospodin (Steve) I finally secured this model which is absolutely a highlight of my B777 collection.

Such a grand livery imo.
Enjoy the pics.

I have also just recieved this model a couple of days ago, till that day it was a holy grail for me, I had always liked the Saudi livery, which also lead me to order the JetX Saudi 744 HZ-AIZ and the already released MD11F HZ-ANA

I'm happy to have provided you with that model. Saudi has one of the most attractive liveries out there. I wish that I had more room to display like you do, but all of my models are crowded onto shelves, so I think your display is so much more suitable for that beautiful plane.

Steve,
It proudly sits on display here in cold and wet South Australia.

I also have the JX Saudi MD-11 and will now look to get the new DW744 whenever that gets released.

Even the box art on the Saudi releases is stunning.
Just love em!

After the summer you just had your complaining about a little bit of rain!

I have to agree that the B777 does look very good in that scheme, almost good enough to tempt me.....

Nope, that was it. I bought it from another DAC member about 8 months ago. I hear these are hard to find now, but no regrets letting it go. Tim has a much nicer display for it. Good luck in your search.

Glad you got one too. Since last week, I had been looking for this model for about a year as well. We're all happy now that we've got one for ourselves. hehe.

Do you have the MD11F (HZ-ANA) ? I ordered one, think it's a dragon mould.
