Talking Herpa Premium Air New Zealand B747-400

Just sharing my joy with friends and fellow members! Please enjoy!

Who would've known that Herpa Premium models actually fly too?

I know everyone has their own tastes, and that's fine, but I just can't justify wasting money on tons of (crappy) Hogans or NPs. I have a few myself, but I'd rather have a small collection of highly detailed and higher quality models such as a Premium, Modell Edition, or IF, then have cheap models up the wazoo. Quality>Quantity is what I say!
I agree with you Mike777. One day they will eventually know what we meant. By then, these premium models won't be as readily available perhaps? I have 5 and I am looking to add 2 more. Will keep you posted.

Oh yeah, about premium models being 'overpriced'; i can think of that cliche, "beauty is in the eye of the beholder"?

whichever model pleases you, that's what counts! Enjoy all!

Jboulin94, thank you thank you! it was a rather difficult one... let's say, a lot of photographs taken and photoshop being done, hehe. i had 2 chairs and a lot of white strings. if you don't balance the plane right, you will end up with one helluva ruined model. thankfully, i haven't had to suffer such loss! (yet?) whew! that's why i tested it out with my YELLOWED LH B744 to make sure it was safe for my flawless NZ B744.

remember, safety of model is number one priority!!!

Nice shots Jason! If it weren't for the roof and maybe lack of flaps in that second picture, I'd swear it was real.
