Very nice pictures.
Still wondering where will these be available.
I have posted for over a week looking for answers and the silence is THUNDEROUS!

Here are my questions again... of course I know now that there will be 1/400 and 1/500 releases..

How many units will be produced of these models?

Are they all 1/400 scale?

Will the regular GJ retailers get these models or do they have to be bought directly from Schuco in Germany or from an European retailer?
( I know it says all models will be available to all markets, but a model can be available to a person from the US by ordering from a retailer in Europe)

Thx in advance
Eduardo

Eduardo,

Yes, they will be available through your local US dealers.
Please wait for GeminiJets official announcement.

Thumbs down Good thing this is a FREE SPEECH web site....

This kind of BLATANT self promotion was never allowed at Wingless500. Two thumbs down!

Won't see anyone getting BANNED here.
