Very nice....any idea how much these will cost and when they will be available?

Corbin · 03-25-2002, 06:54 PM

From the information we've received the terminals and the hotel in the background will be available for sale!

smoothjazz · 03-25-2002, 11:55 PM

Corbin,

Thanks for the info... Now where can we order for how much?

Thanks!

smoothjazz · 03-25-2002, 11:55 PM

Btw, I forgot to mention, both terminals and hotel looks
great... My favorite is the palm trees behind!

Flight Director · 03-26-2002, 10:06 AM

The latest we have from Pixelport is that they are close, but not ready for release. Their website and ordering details are under development and will be available as soon as possible. We'll keep you updated as soon as we hear something..

Looks great and can't wait to see more info regarding price and release date.

Jeremy F. · 03-26-2002, 07:03 PM

Not bad, I like it...And I LOVE the hotel. The main building looks good too, but it needs a bit more colour or maybe something to make it look a bit more modern. Otherwise great job!

DLtheASAconx · 03-26-2002, 08:17 PM

I'll take the hotel.

Jao · 03-26-2002, 08:22 PM

Very neat and nice model.....hope to know more about the pricing and the release dates.

kakspat · 03-26-2002, 08:40 PM

What scale are the buildings in?
PixelPort is very good news indeed!
I love their new GSE and their hangars are exellent.
The Hotel looks cool (a little on the small side though) and the palm trees are cool too.
The main terminal building looks a bit odd though.
The main building looks a lot like a national monument to me with all those pillars. (almost like the whitehouse connected to an airport pier)
~Just my opinion.

We need some official releases now PixelPort!
We're all waiting!

tech77jp · 03-31-2002, 07:31 AM

Terminals look great, and the hangars have an awesome internal structure!

Like Wings900's site says, this truly beats all the rest. Can't wait.

continental sat · 03-31-2002, 10:30 AM

I like these alot they really make herpas buildings look like trash!As soon as these come out my herpa buildings are out the window.

TL925 · 03-31-2002, 02:50 PM

The pier looks sharp. It's smart to start a series with an airport that can resemble any of the ages from the 50's to the present so that all 1/400 scale models can be used without looking out of place.

Flight Director · 03-31-2002, 09:27 PM

Pixelport has just sent us the first photos of their control tower:

flick70 · 03-31-2002, 10:18 PM

Not bad at all....would be interested in seeing some more close-ups though. Also, are they creating their own jetways...or are they ones made by Herpa or GJ?

kakspat · 03-31-2002, 10:46 PM

Now thats an awesome looking tower!
Those vehicles aren't too shabby either.
I'm very impressed with what PixelPort has shown us sofar.
Wings900, do you have an official date for PixelPorts' "grand opening" yet?
I'm very anxious too see what else is going to be on offer, and it's been a while now since we first heard of PixelPort.

Flight Director · 03-31-2002, 10:55 PM

All,
We'll try to get some updated information from Pixelport regarding their release date. From what we've heard, we guess a early summer release but don't quote us on that. Pixelport told us that no prices have been set yet. We'll try to get some close up photos for for you.

As for GSE, jetways, etc.. no firm plans yet, i think those are Herpa jetways in the photos.

Hope this helps, we'll try to get more info for you ASAP..

-FD

In the pictures of the hangars (www.wings900.com - http://www.wings900.com/airports/bui...t/hangars.html) those trucks, the baggage tractor with carts and the forklift are the best GSE I've ever seen!
Wings900, since you're in contact with PixelPort, will these be released by them?
