Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Now that is a good looking jumbo...don't have this one on order personally, but I'm sure many a colector will be happy with this...maybe one day I'll go fishing for this on the second hand market!

Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
The first KLM 747 that I flew on was the next livery after this one (hint, hint 2 tone blue), so I think I will pass. Looks like a very nice model though. Cheatline looks just about right and the pax windows all line up among other things. Well done!!

Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
WOW...that model looks AWESOME!!!

Thanks for putting up the pictures.
Now i can with a clear heart cancell my pre-order. It looks like ....... Pax windows way too high! And again warped boomerang style cheatlines. I was looking forawrd to this , but now i really dont want anymore. Looking at this i will also cancell my pre ordered Avianca one The cheatline needs to come down all the way to were now the letters it read the name of the plane thats about 6 mm lower. |

Look at it and look at for instance your picture of this plane. Clearly it is really badly done. I am tired of parting with my money on bad looking models no matter how limited they are :-) |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
The top three windows actually go down on this model....Simply Awfull
KLM logo in tail not straight. Do you want me to continue |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Why does it look so weird compared to this? I guess the windows and cheatline were printed too high? Even if you take away the overexposed pictures it looks weird. I guess we have to wait for more photos to judge, it could be the angle

Hey Sarge!! Your singapore 747 looks really beautifull and correct in my opinion. The KLM one does not. You ate right ill just wait to see the actual model , and than decide to keep it or not. But looking at these release pics my hopes are not high. I am a bit PO'd because how can the screw up such an iconic livery. |

Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
that livery always reminds me of the TFS disaster for some reason:cry:
|
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
I will agree it is off by 3mm and not 6mm, but i don't think i will cancel. Hope the big guys at Inflight read this and PLEASE try to not make the same mistake. It isn't that hard really :)
Thank you |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
They are becoming seriously overpriced toys iso collectors models.
Why do you still want to buy this????? Than it is more like an addiction than a hobby imho. The only way you can tell inflight that they are screwing up is by NOT buying product. Plus if you do buy you actually become part of the problem. They will feel no urge to change. Just leave it for a change, buy your wife some nice shoes or other gifts iso this junk that you are not entirely happy with |

Thats exactly the problem. Don't get me wrong i am also guilty of this on many occasions in the past. I actually spend about 1500€ a year on models from inflight. But i am stopping. I think the quality is simply becoming awfull. The Singapore 747 that you see here above is almost perfect. But they must have fired the guy at quality control since then Small errors are fine , but this is just horrible. |

Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Nice....but, I'd love to see more the following livery with the iconic blue top, the wide blue cheatline & the chrome bottom. That would be a definitive YES & a MUST HAVE for me!

Actually, the PH-BUF wich had the accident was painted blue at the time, not this livery. |

Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
I have cancel my order as well now. JC PLEASE ANNOUNCE this model & make this mold. We can only hope.
Inflight should consider a REDO on this with another run or STOP the sale. If there are only 240 units made then just strip them and reuse the planes. I don't know, but where is BOB to check these things????????? :cry: |

Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Marcus, maybe you havent noticed this thread, but before making another KLM B747 could/would you alao carefully consider improving the window misalignment in JCs OWN B787 first?!

And fire the cross eyed quality contoller Just cancelled my pre order |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
From that top-down view, the cheatline looks crooked, higher in the rear-wing area, lower in front & rear of fuselage. Poor effort.
|
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Can we get some more pictures if possible? I would just like to see how it looks from some other angles and more detailed shots.

Well said. If collectors want the manufacturer to change or improve, the only way is refusing to buy their products. I always use Phoenix 1:400 as an example. People(the nervous buyers) rush to buy Phoenix 1:400 despite the quality and issues, the direct result is deteriorating quality but increasing prices.LOL Line issue is always obvious and therefore is a big issue. No need to buy a wrong model. That's so simple. By the way, I am more concerned whether IF200 has changed their V-shaped cockpit window on this KLM release... http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...D/IMG_0210.jpg http://i130.photobucket.com/albums/p...horizontal.jpg |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Judging by the new EVA and 95th KLM, they fixed the v-shaped cockpit windows. The front of the model is looking pretty great now actually, perhaps even better than the JC.
|
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
The problem is that one model is good one is ok and the other is simply awfull.
They lack Quality control all of them. |

I realize this is something that doesn't occur (at least I haven't noticed it from photos, but perhaps it's less noticeable) on other models, so not sure why it's so difficult on 747's. Perhaps there's something unique in the way this section is shaped on 747's? |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
Does anyone know when this will arrive in the U.S.? I know it has been produced.
Thanks. |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
My guess would be by the end of July. Seems like everything that is posted in Asia gets to US in 8 weeks

Oh and to the OP Please do something about your over exposures as I am getting retinal burns just looking at your pics :eek: |
Re: B747-206B KLM OC Polished
I saw one of these on display at ARD last weekend...to be honest, I thought she looked awesome...if I wasn't already buying about 10 other jumbo's, I'd have had one myself.
