No, I didn't contact "conquest models" so far - but I guess this sort of model costs a bunch of $$$... Apparently they are also planning to make a VC-10, a DC-8, a DC-10 and other classic airliners. As soon as they offer a 727 I will ask for the price!

Same here!!! I recently bought a Lufthansa DC-10 in 1/50. Seems to be made of some sort of resin. It's in the 70s LH-livery and has a red LH-tag underneath the elevator. No sign of a manufacturer. The seller told me the model used to be displayed in a "Lufthansa City Center". I will post some pictures here as soon as I can grab a camera. Do you know anything about this kind of model???

... Incredible models. I bet the 1/36 777 is $$$$!

My new standard is 1/200 and larger. I started with 1/400, then 1/200's, some 1/100's. The 1/50's are tough in jumbo-jet size
