Well it is Phoenix and they have just spent a bundle on these new moulds...
So they may as well use them, especially as JC seems to be doing a spot of livery poaching ATM!
That said, have Phoenix ever done any retro releases?? I am under the impression their focus is very current... (I wish they'd shrink their 1:200 Tu-134s down to 1:400, but that's another story too!)
Interesting selection... The Vietnam bus is tempting... Hmmm.
I will grab the candy bag this month..... Still waiting for TAM´s 777-300ER!!!

I'll take the Thai 747s for my planned-for BKK diorama. How I wish the JAL 767 was in the previous non-special livery - still waiting patiently. Nice releases though...

Err, I think that livery is their current (new) regular livery now? But I prefer the previous "Arc of the Sun" livery too. This new livery is just too plain.
Time to write a huge check. Taking 6 of those.
Thankfully I haven't indulged in the last couple of releases from, well, any of the manufacturers and thus have some savings!!!
2 Virgins, 1 Thai, JAL, (dull but I rarely pass on a JAL), Air Canada and maybe the Sri Lankan.
WOW!
WOW!
WOW!

Hey guys, how about some Braniff Ultras??!!
Now let's finish the TWA set...TWA Final scheme 757,and all three MD-80 schemes!!!
Mandala airlines?! I really can't believe PHX actually make that! Oh my, so happy XD
Better grab that one, I was surprised to see PHX releasing Mandala A320! I think I'll add the VN,EY,SA,Virgin Australia A330s and the Mandala to my wishlist.
Very very happy with the mandala A320, why not after the Air Asia Indonesia was so popular
Not to mention a significant role from someone here that came with this brilliant suggestion...and successfuly convinced PH to make Mandala.
How are you doing over there, Stu?

Delighted after seeing the Mandala released from phoenix, ordered that up straight away, good to see a few other guys around the world support this by pre-order too.
Nice A330s in there. Has it been two months with no 777? Hope there isn't something wrong with the mould.
Wow! A buying spree for me this month!
I'm going to buy 1 x Air Canada A330-343X, 1 x Virgin Australia A330-200, 1 x Virgin Atlantic A330-300E with Rolls-Royce Trent 772C-60 engines, 2 x Etihad Airways A330-300E "Visit Abu Dhabi 2011"!
5 A330s for me in total!
Regarding Phoenix's 777 mould, I hope Phoenix would update its GE90-115B/GE90-110B engine, the engine strut shape, the shape of the raked wingtip to be more realistic!
I understand most of the collectors have a "Strong preference" towards Phoenix, but Herpa and Hogan's 777-300ER & 777-200LR have a better GE90 engine shape, engine strut shape & the shape of raked wingtip!
I hope others would join me in championing for a PHX 777 mould update!
Phoenix's A330 already is the best and has the most realistic mould!

Question...how does the new phoenix A330 look compared to GJ's A330? I'm actually considering getting one or both of the Virgins but don't want them making my Hawaiian A330 from GJ look like a different airplane.

I have a Hawaiian and a few USAirways GJ's mixed in with my PHX 330's (old and new mould) and they all look just fine.

Perfect! Thanks for letting me know...cause that Virgin Australia is now for sure making it's way into my collection to sit along side my Hawaiian and Jetstar. Still unsure if I can justify the Virgin Atlantic simply because there's no way to bend that A330 into the theme of my collection. I may have to cheat though...just this once

Its an another A330...it fits a theme of A330ness.
Is the Phoenix ethiad a330 the same model as the JC Wings ethiad a330.....both are advertised as pre order but no us seller has the Phoenix model. I've only seen the JC Wings version. Can anyone clarify?
Wow, HS-TGL. I so happened to have flown TG601 on this aircraft back in March. Hell I'm getting it. Coincidentally on my return 5 days later I flew on HS-TEH(A333, which also exists as a model).

Air Canada A333! Another good PH Release! I've been waiting for some more AC Widebodies, I can cross the A330 off the list. I'll be getting this one for sure for my YYZ Collection.

Does anyone know if the two TG 744s differ in anything other than the registrations?
The box art has me wondering if HS-TGL might have the earlier purple horizontal tailplane and HS-TGR might have the curent grey horizontal tails.
Does anyone know for sure?
Well PH is really busy with their mould of the A332 and A333 and A340's so I hope they will release the KL A332 and A333 too, only the reg.nr for the A333 will be difficult and a long time to wait for..
