Finally got my hands on one of these...
My first Embraer model in the collection.
Second photo is the Virgin Australia models I could fit in my cabinet, I have a few more.....
First new model in about a month! Swoop, WestJet's ULCC, joins my collection with this release from NG Models!

My first copy of the Varig has arrived, this will be displayed on the shelf. The second copy (which will be stored along with my other rare models) is due soon as well, along with the Air India A321
My latest arrival NG Models Delta A321-200 N339DN. Interesting, this is my 3rd NG A321, and all 3 had left the wing detached when I opened them. Maybe NG stands for No Glue?
Finally managed to land myself one of these rare gems after months of hunting (all thanks to tristar250!).
I love the SAS old colours, imagine a 747 in this scheme!
We need more MD-80's in 1/400.
Would also be cool to get the Aeroclassics DC-9 in the scheme, but this is good enough.
And, my models need a dust!
My second copy of the Varig arrived along with the amazing Air India A321 from HK!! Really happy with the release!! and now can't wait for the A330.......
Finally, after 12 months of waiting I received the AV400 SAS A350-941 and JC Wings Icelandair B737-408. Did pre-order them November 2019. Also received the GJ SAS A320-251. I need to fix that front gear on the A320.....Hmmm.
Finally decided to get myself the BA Landor retro 744.
Yes, it's the phoenix version, but I couldn't be stuffed to pay $75 more for the Gemini version (which may turn to dust one day, who knows).
The stunning livery makes up for it anyway!!
So glad I was finally able to snag one of these Phoenix Air New Zealand 777-300ER's! Having seen it many times at LAX, this fits perfectly in my LAX themed 1:400 collection!
It will be interesting to see this thread come Christmas (unless no one in here gets models for Christmas)...

Merry Christmas all, here's what santa sent me...
A few firsts for me, (my first 787-9, A321N, Saab340 and NG model)
Unfortunately the 787-9 came with a missing nose gear tire and the piece that keeps them on is detached, not the best start, but the retailer said they'd be in contact with NG to get some replacement parts, fingers crossed!
Second part of the haul arrived! Here’s the full haul, and I’ll have pics of everything set up soon. I’m setting up a new iPad right now, and it is irritating me

One of the best parts of this hobby in recent months has been Aeroclassics 727's, both -100 and -200! Here's a -200, a LACSA 80's livery model I had wanted for a while.

Just received my Southwest Illinois One today. As some of you may know, I do not tolerate broken models. This is one of those instances in which this happened.
Waffle shipped this on USPS. The back of the box had a huge indentation on the back. Consequently, the engine snapped off and the nose gear was bent severely. Most of the time the blame would go toward Gemini, but this time it has to be a shipping issue. I was able to fix the engine, but the nose gear snapped off during repair and it now sits crooked. A bit disappointing...

Just got these in recently. My favorite Air New Zealand livery. I like to call it Euro white with a little flair! This is my first Dragon Wings purchase in probably a decade! Even this older GJ 777-200 looks great in this livery. I figure that at this point, no manufacturer is going to release these aircraft in this livery.
