Very excited about he TAP release. Tristar looks good as always!! Only one slight gripe ( sorry if I'm being anal!!) but it looks like the grooves on the main landing gear still haven't been addressed! They're smooth looking and unlike the first batch of Tristar releases where they looked more realistic than smooth ( which they are not!) and it's an issue I've been mentioning for ages now!! NG have you addressed this? Or am I just seeing things?

I'm sure they said that would be dealt with by (or in) July on a recent post, either here or on their facebook page ?

Wow, can you explain your suggestion in more detail with pictures? sorry, I just want to make sure I understand your thoughts.
Indeed so, are they perhaps being 'unlisted' like the 2nd Qantas 787 for "some" reason ?
photos for NY/NJ will come out in late this month. The colours of the plane were very complex and took us a lot of time. We just want to be as perfect as possible.

The landing gear should have grooves in the hubs as on the real aircraft. Both on the front and main landing gear. You have got this correct, but have left out doing ALL the hubs. It's also evident if you look at one side of the model it will have them,yet the other side doesn't. This should be on every wheel hub. Thanks for addressing! 😀👍

Here's the example of the front landing gear. The difference should be clearly evident now!

Same issue on the 787s and A330s. These moulds already are superior to any other, but with this kind of detail they would REALLY look like the real thing - in smaller scale. Please NG, note this and set is as a standard for all moulds requiring it in terms of accuracy.
