I remember a while ago someone on here asked if there was a model of a VS A333 around yet.

I have today had an E-Mail from waffle collectibles (formerly air pradagram) detailing a model of G-VKSS

Thanks for posting, Chris. JC Wings was always one of the "unofficial" brands, do you have any view on quality of this model?

There are a couple of forums such as Wings 900 (just google it) which will have the answer. IIRC Gemini and Phoenix are considered the best but dont quote me on ti!

Just got the new Emirates A330 by Phoenix - must be a new mould as looks much better than Gemini now.

The 1:400 Phoenix 787 and A330 have the wrong shade of purple. The real life titles are dark purple.

Or maybe not... Seen pics of the jcwings model last night and it seems to have g-vsxy as the reg and no flying lady on the front. Looks like they used a pic from when it was testing as a base!
