Let me be the first to say "thanks" for making this thread! I'll start off by asking what happened to the Gemini200 DC-10 that is/was supposedly in the works? See this thread: http://www.diecastaircraftforum.com/...a-dc-10-a.html
That's all I can think of off the top of my head, but I'm sure I'll have some more questions later. Gotta run for now!
Here is my wish list:
Eastern bare-metal 727-200 and/or -100 (if you guys use the -100 JC wings mould)
Northwest DC-9-10 Bowling shoe
Delta MD-88 all schemes (except maybe the 97 scheme)
Midwest Express DC-9-10
Delta 727-200 widget
Midway MD-87 and DC-9-10 (same scheme as the MD-87)
Make some CRJ's to go along with your ERJ's in U.S. regional liveries. I would like to see a Southern, Hughes Airwest, & Northwest/Republic hybrid baby 9.
Since you all are releasing an AA 777, I would like to see the AA One World version as well.
747SP in Pan Am, TWA, China Airlines, Korean Air
767-200 in American
767-300 in British Union Jack
777-200 In British Union Jack
DC-10-10 in United Saul Bass and American

Re: Official ask Gemini200 questions and wishes
I have just one little itty bitty tinsey winsey thing that I want to say and that is "CAN YOU DIECAST PEOPLE MAKE THE GEAR CORRECTLY "
Jet lag induced post.
you guys are the ones that brought us BWIA in 1/400, effing awesome, lets go already and lead the way in 1/200...old and new colours L1011, MD80, 737...you got the moulds...bring it
Let the guys at GJ200 take a breath, firefly... they've done so many new moulds and great releases this year!
I am sure they'll bring us more in 2010... my tops on the 'new mould list':
1. A310
2. 747SP
3. 767-200
Yes I would agree. GJ200 was really great this year and it became extremely popular. If you've noticed that there are more traffic on the 1:200 Scale section than 1:400 Scale this year. I like the A310 too. Not much of the SP fan since I have a difficulty looking at a truncated B747...

Jet lag induced post.
I rather have a nearly perfect mould/print/colour than the gears. A well made mould and print will still look good even with poor gears.
would love to see the following short DC-9's: Southern, Continental Golden Jet, Bonanza, Standard, SAS, Germanair, 727's: Northwest delivery, Delta Delivery, American (any), United Saul Bass (70's), Iberia, Mexicana Aztec, US Air - white top with red stripes, Western Chief, Air Canada, ANA delivery, 757 - United Saul Bass, Mexicana, Britannia, Monarch, Northwest bowling shoe, L-1011 - Alia -Royal Jordanian and BWIA. I buy every release anyway, but these would just be sweet!
New tools: early DC-8's, 747SP, A-300, A310

Lots of baby 9's coming. Don't know how soon a
OW B777, considering the first one is barely coming out at it is an AA.
I am sure you will see lots of DL in 200 upcoming.
No L1011-100 mould, no TWA, sorry. Lots of other airliners would
come before Valujet. In short, don't hold your breath for that one.

Look at the geminijets web site under contact us. There is a section titled "Replacement parts"

Martinair Holland 767-300 (1990's colours)
Martinair Holland 747-200C (1990's colours)
Condor 757-200 (late 1990's colours)
Condor 767-300 (late 1990's colours)
Iberia 727-200
Iberia MD-87
Air Canada L-1011-500 (delivery colours)
ALIA Royal Jordanian L-1011-500 delivery colours)
BWIA International L-1011-500 (delivery colours)
TAP Air Portugal L-1011-500 (delivery colours)*
* Yes, the screwed up, minor quality JC Wings release has to be replaced.
TAP won't be remade as the L-1011-500 mould is shared between
GJ200 and JCWings. If one makes one, the other one won't.
I know of two 500's coming out in the next few months, and neither one is listed in your requests

No moulds for any of those at this time.

And of course the PanAm L1011 which is in the works already?
If I was a betting man, I would put money on a Pan Am B727 being made at some point next year! PA Tristar should be appearing just about the time
the flowers start popping out for spring.

Rod, I was looking at the Gemini website regarding the replacement policy, and is it possible to get get replacement parts if you get a model second hand or if you break the model even if you got it in good condition?

and we need spare parts available for the engines that currently are not carried. Mailing cost for parts that are flat should be low, the current charge of $10 for say a antennae is ridiculous.
I'll just say "common US domestic stuff of the 80's and 90's". Mainly narrowbodies. Common. That means there should have been dozens of them flying about for years and years. (though I do have a soft spot for the secondary carriers like Southern, North Central, Frontier, Ozark, Republic, etc)
Lastly, I'll just request that every 727 is NOT hushed. And that all DL and EA planes are NORMAL. Not bicentennial, not hybrids, etc.
PS---please check all future DL widget planes: 80's and 90's ARE different. Striping is different, reg numbers are different, wings are different, nose is different, tailcone's different, etc. For Delta, even if you use pics of a specific plane like N110DL or something, be sure to use pics from the same time period---they looked different as DL repainting them.
PPS---white tailplanes are much more common than the diecast model industry would lead people to believe. Check!
AP won't be remade as the L-1011-500 mould is shared between
GJ200 and JCWings. If one makes one, the other one won't.

Concerning the TAP L-1011, it's a shame since the guy(s) at JC Wings really screwed it up. I am pretty sure this particular JC release will never be 'sold out' and take a save rest on the retailers' shelves. Well, if GJ200 won't be able to re-do it due to the mould sharing agreement with JC Wings... bad luck for both of us.
As for the two -500s coming out, I must admit that I'm dropping the Pan Am release in any guessing & wishing threads due to the fact it was already confirmed. So, one of the two new L-1011s you were refering to is the Pan Am, right?! Then, there's another guess to make... actually, I have no clue. Any (vague) hints whether it's an airline, a corporate, a military or a missionized TriStar aircraft?
