Wah sad for you.. My MH772 is turning yellowish a little.. argh..
Btw Jacky I have a bad news and a good news for you.

Bad news is, the seller said that the Malaysia MH380 is out of stock.

Good news is, the one I originally ordered is the last unit, and seller opened the box and inspect the model inside and found that it has some minor paint defect on the model, so he couldn't sell that model to me.

2nd good news is, the new stock for this model is arriving at his store in this week.

turtl3, can check your supplier for Man U jet ar?

Mufan, yes he does have ManUtd jet, but I'm already purchasing way out of my budget. The total of those models I getting from the store this month is almost RM600.. and my cousin at NY is going to ship for me so I don't want to buy tooo many then the shipping is too expensive later she tak syok.

But don't worry, I got one ManUtd jet, lets see how lah.. if you really really really want it I can sell mine to you

haha,

how much did you buy it?

VERY EXPENSIVE!!!



joking la

i hate u hahaha

good news is the plane u order is defect and cant sell to u ??

wahh then i need wait another few weeks kah

Well, consider that as a good news. Takkan u want a defect plane right?

teddie: Its the last piece of model on my flight only. I'm sure MAS still has plenty of those.

lol thanks. most of the stuff i have collecting dust already n in not so good condition

I got alot of plastic models also, but most of them not in good condition already.

Now I start collecting diecast metal models

i have 3 plastic ones. All from MAS where they give out souvenir planes.

but all dunno put where!!

plastic model are hard to keep la cause spoil easily..... canot clean..... like we clean our diecast model....... and diecast modelo dun scare spoil easily

Plastic model especially those with white livery, tends to turn yellowish easily.. Example my plastic MAS744 and Air NZ 744 and Singapore Airlines 744 and Qantas 744 all turned a little yellowish now, well those models are more than 10 years old though. But my BA old livery B744,B772 and Tristar all looks good as the fuselage is in grey and black.

So conclusion, buy model try to avoid white colour, although white livery to me looks more elegant.

u mean plastic one ?? hmm but if u buy diecast it wont be a prob rite ??

sometimes it's the price point that counts during the actual buying of the model. put side by side plastic and diecast, if they look relatively the same, then the next thing usualy is price.

i think diecast cheaper in a way tat u dun hav to buy paints to paint it... and its semi metal.... and we can hold it and dun hav to worry to break it..

oo, plastic model kits i thought u meant the plastic ready made one like mine

I.. hate diecast..!!!! ahhh... every month sure got some release will catch my eye.. this hobby is like the black hole in my wallet.. until human stop flying airplanes or this hobby will never end...!! ahh
