Default Diecast re-releasing of former liveries

Seeing as diecast manufacturers seem to be re-releasing models of former liveries that were once available only in plastic, how about re-releasing Qatar's three 15th Asian Games - 2006 livery A330s in diecast? They would look stunning, for sure. Better than the Hogan versions.

Fantastic and a wonderful idea!

To many are done in plastic but not yet in metal.

Just to name a few:

Air Tahiti Nui A340
Air Seychelles 767
Air Caraibes A330
Air Inter A330
Air Madagascar 767
Aeroflot A330
SAS A340



Man, I would go bankrupt if they fulfill this wish.

Yup, I just happened to do a search the other day for the ATN A340 and the Madagascar models. Difficult to find now in plastic. Seychelles and Caraibes are also beautiful liveries.

Exactly! I have the AA Boeing 757-200 for sale. But I agree..the B727-200 and 727-100 are so requested. Even though Inflight made the 727-100 recently, Gemini 200 different mold. And the AA Fokker-100 since JC wings announced the Virgin Fokker-100. But would love to see the AA Electra-188 to be honest.

Additional models that have been produced in plastic that I'd like to see done in diecast are the JAL/JALways Reso'cha 747s.
