I got on the newspapers stand a magazine with a die-cast A380 with the Airbus Industry livery. Since the model is quite near the 1/500 scale I bought two and made one with Air France deco.

I have no idea . I believe the model plane is made in China or in Spain . Like HW the tail is in plastic. Not a high quality but more than enough to be in a collection specialy when there is nothing else in the 1/500°.
The name of the Magazine is "Avions de Ligne" and is published by Ediiciones Orbis In barcelona. The Spanish title is "Aviones y Aeropuerto". In France they are represented by Editions Fabri. I understand you can order the magazine at expsmag@expressmag.com .
You can also ordered them via Praxys, BP568 , 77O16 MELUN Fr.
They have made already 7 models which were published at 2 weeks apart I didn't bother since the scale was not 1/500.
The next model will be A300-600.
The price of the A380 at newspaperstand is 10.50 Euros wich is about 9us$.
regards Jacques

Right !

Me too, they make you belive that they produce only small quantities to charge a higher price.

Who should belive that ???

It´s just some illegal crap without permission produced in HK !!!
