Considering SMA has a much nicer MD-11, I'm hoping they will release a Delta MD-11 soon, so I won't have to buy the GJ version.
Let's hope #4 is really the MD-88.
The two moulds are almost identical. Very very small differences between them. So you could go with either and have an awesome model of the MD-11.
I'll say #3 is a 737, because it says fleet builders and many airlines build their fleet with 737's so guess that's what it might be!

ugh duuuude, what does a guy gotta do to get another TWA release? Well whatever, I guess that still keeps my collection nicely contained in one Detolf case only lol.

Yup, still hoping for a twin-stripe of something...preferably a B722.
Could #2 be a Braniff 742? God that would be awesome!!!
I wondered that, too, but as someone pointed out, Waco was not a city they served. (But not sure how literal we should take his hints with regard to cities served.)
Me too, a twin-stripe TWA 727 or MD-80 will do for me...
The TWA B727-100 was released from Phoenix and-200 from InFilght in a twin stripe and the MD80 from JetX in the reverse livery (red overall with white stripes),so the B727-100/ 200 was done.The normal MD80 is what is missing.

Yes, but the B722 is on the IF200 mould which is not highly regarded. I would love to see GJ release one on their amazing B722 mould.
How cool is that! MD-88 or MD-11 it's still a Long Beach built MDC Widget nuntheless!
Hint, There were two (2) 748 Passenger birds in Boeing's Flight Test program. One being L/U 1432, the Sunrise livery, which we all affectionately called the 'Red Roster'. The other was a DLH that never wore the carriers colors.

Why do some members are saying that #5 is definitely a FedEx 767? Don't take me wrong, I am really bad at guessing games but I find pretty unusual that the FedEx Store already has that model in stock, actually the items has been sent to buyers, and then Gemini is making his own production. Too much models I think.
In the case that #5 is certainly the 767, what does it will have of different the GJ200 vs the FedEx's version?
My model is on its way to my home, the item is already at mexican soil. So, perhaps tomorrow or Wednesday I will be receiving the 767, bought it directly from the FedEx Store.
Greetings!!!

Everyone is saying Southwest 738 with scimitars, but I am going to say it's the new Alaska 738 with scimitars, since the design on them is really cool, and it does mention that.

Emmmm, one answer.
First batch was the corporate order filled for FX and the follow up is for general release by GJ.
Where is the Lufthansa 748 from Gemini??? Any updates as struggling to connect any clues this time around... been a while since announced surely cant still be awaiting approval from LH???
I have it on pre-order from ARD, but its been quite a while since announced in MAY

I agree with you. My guess is Alaska. There has been a lot of Southwest releases in the past couple of months.

The model at the FedEx store is a Gemini model.....so only makes sense that it will be included in the September releases. FedEx just got their supply first.
And the clue makes sense...."home of grace". Memphis is FedEx home and home of Elvis home "Graceland".
I have been waiting to see a regular livery release on one of these models, I hope it is done with the split scimitars.
I think at this point all the 900ERs have scimitars. I haven't seen a normal 900 with them, and I don't know if there going to get them (the first 3 still don't even have blended winglets). They just recently received there first 900ER in the new livery, and I also have my fingers crossed for that one next month.

I agree with you but let's take things from the beginning. About 10 years ago the only diecast B727 mould was hand made from Heathrow models and the Price was $150 approximately and was with decals and varnish on top. Then for half the price the IF200 mould was on the market with antennas, rubber rolling wheels, now better mould is around but we have another case here. First we pray for the airline/livery we want badly, after some time one of the manufacturers listen to our wish,after that everyone complaints about the mould and when the model is on the market more complaints, the door should be more to the right,the antenna is not in the center and the game goes on. THERE IS NOT A PERFECT MODEL. So personally l will take the airline model l want and after l will keep complain about the mould to my self because I know that is wrong and some times no second option. This is why most manufacturers release their models that others don't and they know is the wrong mould, believe me. The option is always yours.

Yes, I'm aware of all of this. I've been a member of this forum since 2007 and my very first 1:200 scale models were the IF200 Eastern B722s. I've actually owned the IF200 TWA B722 but sold it (and pretty much all of my collection) to raise funds after losing my job. I'm not one of those collectors who complains about cockpit and passenger windows placement, engine size, etc., etc., though I am somewhat picky about color correctness. It is not, however, a deal breaker for me. I have considered buying the IF200 version again, but I'm really hoping GJ will release it instead, given they have released the two other liveries on their B722 mould.
I REALLY want GJ or Hogan to release a Sunwing 738, a WestJet 738, a WestJet 763W, and maybe the Magic Plane, all in 1/200 please!!!
Too bad they haven't released those yet in 1/200.

As we approach the dog days of Summer in the North, and Winter winds to an end in the South, time for some hints for the September GJ releases.
This month we have 18 releases in total, 9 1/200 scale, 9 1/400 scale and that includes Gemini MACS.
1/200
#1 This fine French Bus will move you from Paris or London without much fuss.
#2 This Orange tailed twin could take you from Waikiki to Waco, and back again.
#3 This Dream looks good from your seat, it was recently announced you will get more room for your feet.
#4 The most wanted widget does finally appear, its polished belly gleams like a mirror.
#5 A modern glass COCKpit this has replaced, its home is found at the home of the Grace.
#6 The Rugby World Cup this does promote, never mind if it looks like a boat.
#7 Everyone will complain about this 773, its a corporate order, so don't take it out me.
#8 A new aircraft with a new paint scheme is really neat, but these Scimitars cant be beat.
#9 If you like watches and chocolate, this is really neat, but this aircraft will soon leave the fleet.
