Will gladly take the Qantas 737 in new roo logo after passing on the DW version knowing GJ would eventually make one. Having said that, I still hope GJ can have more varieties in its releases as they seem to release models from the same airlines over and over again in recent months.
Give us something that we'll go "Hey, I didn't expect this one"

I am so thrilled to finally see this NW A320!!! I've flown on it in this livery before, and I was afraid I'd never see it after the Delta takeover...erm..."merger." I.e., to sum up, YAY!
Oh sure, NOW we get a decent NWA A320 when they are on the verge of extinction, at least in NWA colors that is. Will definitley be getting this one!!!
Man...What I wouldn't give to have had this model a year ago...but now that I know it's not hanging around I can't bring myself to buy this one. I will take one of those FedEx 57's though.
Gimme the Qantas B737 with the winglets painted correctly GJ... QF don't paint the inside of the winglets red.
But I'll take some anyhoo. At least this aircraft actually exists in this livery unlike DW's version which is a possibility for the future, but not the here and now.
Seems a very short list this time around?

Northwest A320 and Continental 757-300! Hells yeah! I've been wondering why GJ never got around to doing a CO 753. Two holes in the U.S. workhorse fleets just got filled. Granted I had already done a custom Northwest A320 in new colors, but getting an actual release of this subject is great! This is the kind of stuff that I've been hoping GJ would focus a little more on. There's plenty more to do! I'll be picking up the FedEx 757 and Omni DC-10 too!
Comparing the DW QF B738 with this GJ version, I have to say that GJ definitely do cabin windows far better, by including even the blanked off windows forward and aft of the remaining cabin windows. It is also pleasing to see that they have included the over-wing walkway unlike DW who forgot. On the down-side, I don't see the name 'Innisfail' written on the side of the nose below the cockpit windows. Noting that GJ also didn't include 'Hudson Fysh' on the QF A380 VH-OQB, this is becoming a worrying trend. You may argue that they didn't know what VH-OQB was to be named, but you cannot argue that GJ knew that QF were going to name it something. GJ just wanted to rush it out. As also pointed out, the painted winglets shouldn't be painted on the inboard side and the leading edge of the winglets should be silver just like the leading edge of the fin.
All in all, I think the GJ version wins this round largely due to the inclusion of the overwing walkways which is a fairly noticeable aspect.
My question for the Jan releases is why do an Iberia 346 when already done on the much better DW and HE moulds.
Surely a CX or other airline not yet touched would be better use of the mould.

A) GeminiJets is not authorized to release CX models
B) Iberia is a large customer
C) It pays the bills

Or better yet, if they really wanted to do an Iberia, they could have done an A340-300! GJ's A343 mould is much better than their A346, and the only model of this that has been released to date is that old Dragon version with a fake registration.

Agreed, my Dragon Iberia A343 looks rubbish, especially the gears. It's about time GJ got their A343 mould back into action, a couple of Virgin Atlantic releases would go down a treat as well.

Late to the game, but they all look interesting. The NWA A320 is a must, as well as the FDX 757. Not sure about whether or not I will spring for the CO and Omni.
Iberia is going to fill a huge hole in my alliance fleet, thanks GJ.
Gj january realeases!
i will soon though
