Default CHINA AIRLINES 747-400 has landed~

Hello guys, I am new collector here~ the CI 747-400 B-18215 has landed, which is my country's airline(TAIWAN),we are democratic instead of communist(P.R.C.). This one was made by ALB, they use Inflight200 mold,and really did a goood job!! It's very beautiful, detailing and with accurate color of standard livery.I think you can get it especially 747 fans, and you won't disappoint.

What a stunning model. I have a IF200 'prototype' example, so I didn't feel the need for this, but there are a few small details that really improve the look, and the stand of course...great buy, and less than 100 examples too, so pretty rare!

That rose on the vertical stabilizer is a real eyecatcher, when I'm talking to people who are not in this hobby it is often the only livery they can denominate!

I've seen this model come up on eBay from time to time as a "prototype". Which retailers stock it, or is this an old release? Its a very nice model indeed.

You don't need any luck to see it on the JC mould. JC will release this one.

Very nice looking model. I've always liked the China Airlines livery.
I have one question.. I don't own any 1:200 models that have details of the model on a plaque on the base of the stand so is the missing figure dash '747 400' instead of '747-400' fairly typical? Looks like a silly mistake to me.

Do you mean this one? The Reg is B-18211 instead of B-18215.

That's the one I've seen. I didn't notice the different registration.

Anyone know of a retailer who is stocking this new China Airlines release?

It's a nice model, and I would like to add it to my collection, but not at the price the "prototype" ones are asking (plus shipping) on eBay.

Beautiful Model!
Waiting for JC release for this one.


However, I did preorder IF China Airlines Boeing House Colors from IF.
Wondering if JC Will release that one too, since I would love to display it with the gears removed...

This 747-400 was allegedly the last 747-400 delivered by Boeing. Can anyone confirm that?

What a beautiful airplane! I've gotta have one of these! Dynasty class is really nice on a 15+ hour flight.

"Production of the 747-400 passenger version officially ceased on March 15, 2007.[1] The last four −400s on order were cancelled by Philippine Airlines (which switched to the 777-300ER). The last to order the −400 was China Airlines in November 2002, with the last passenger 747-400 constructed in 2005 and delivered in April of that year.[1] It was the 1358th 747 (MSN33737/B-18215)."- from WIKIPEDIA
