Wow this interactive models surprised me considering the quality of GJ lately. Well done to them and if they can keep improving then well... The competition between NG and GJ is back on!
Preach, brother! This is an excellent review series! TBH, these are not worth it to me due to the panel gaps and the paint on the plastic prices is different from the metal sections. I will try there models at some point in the future and do a review as well. I really like your new review style!
What a review! RIP to the engines. Really enjoyed all the expressions and points made and I highly agree with them. I would definitely think it would be an interesting element if they can make it to where the parts move all in one piece but time will only tell on that one. Awesome video!
I just bought 2 models for the first time in a while. One is the UPS B747-400F Interactive Series. I do have to say I love the model. The gaps aren’t actually that bad as some others I’ve seen. The only issue I have is the rear landing gear. It is all crooked sideways when lifted up, however it looks fine when on the ground. I’ve actually gotten really lucky with my Gemini Jets Models. There are of course small quality control issues, but the only model I had trouble with was a China Southern A380 and that was the nose landing gear broke off after a big fatigue crack snapped off only after 2 days of it just sitting. I’ve had much worse luck with other companies, the worst being Herpa. I bought a Etihad A340-600 in the F1 livery. Broken Right Main Landing Gear, Engines 3 & 4 were unattached, Engine 1’s engine fan came out of the engine casing and also came off, and both horizontal stabilizers fell out. I never returned it even though I should have, but I plan to fix it since I have all the parts except for engine 1’s casing. It’s probably in a junk drawer somewhere, at least I hope so. Anyways thought I’d share my new purchase and past experiences, definitely love my Interactive Series!
The nose, cockpit, hump and the taper onto the main fuselage are very off in these moulds. I wonder if that’s a side effect of the interactive pieces? I would have also liked to see a hollow main deck for 1/200. Some little details, even only decals on the inside would be a great touch.
They do look very cool when the door are open. But when you close them, you see the massive gaps and the nose shape doesn't have the angle change. The hump on all Gemini -8Fs also looks too round in the back. Imo it looks like a cool but flawed effort by GJ but and very expensive. Thanks for including my IG reply and great review, I can definitely see why you have your opinion on them!
Im planning on getting China southern cargo 787-9 dreamliner NG models on Christmas because its my faviroute aircraft and China Southern is my faviroute airline
I was considering to pre order the 1/200 interactive 747 (I believe it was going to come from JC Wings). After watching this video and seeing that the "interactive" part was just taking a piece off and replacing it with an open piece, I will just wait for a review of the 1/200 interactive model. If it seems good and I missed it, I will just wait until another release comes out.
@@Aviation18 could you try to buy them? Just don’t complain about the 1/400 scale interactives are difficult now, i know its kinda difficult but now they decide to add a metal key like the 1/200 models
I don't know if you can't get the prices lower than what they retail for. At least here in America you can get an interactive series 747 for $56 dollars at most stores and eBay, but I guess shipping or customs might get you. Overall I bought the DHL/Polar 747 and it had the exact same issues (outward engines and rear door not gong all the way)and its not bad! It would be sick to have a fleet of ups 767 and MD-11s that the doors opened on!!!
They’re alright. I bought the Air Bridge Cargo 747-8 because I thought they were a cool concept. But they’re kind of gimmicky, and I didn’t like them as much as I thought I would. But I’m really surprised to see how expensive they are on Ebay. Maybe if I sell mine, I’ll sell it cheap like $45-50
I personally liked the original 747 8f releases for abc cargolux and atlas air more than these. The originals weren’t interactive, but at least they were more durable
how do you justify spending money on these, albeit being your hobby? I often have an internal struggle. I would spend days to filter out which one I want and just get the one.
I would actually love to have these aircraft, especially the ABC one, that exact 747-8F (VP-BBY) I’ve seen at my local airport. They’re a little pricey though unfortunately
Omg thank you so much for getting the 747 dhl polar air cargo I have another model idea for you it's the Qatar Airbus A380 and Qatar Airways airbus a340 u cant get them on aircraft model store or geminijets so just get them on ebay they might be a little expensive?

Haven’t watched it but know it’s gonna be amazing 😃
Obviously
I’m going to watch it too, it’s totally true!
Thanks man! 😂
Agreed
“The prices on eBay are high”
Flashback to me buying a ua 764 yesterday
Lol
Would you recommend getting an A380 or a B777?
@@tbmanchesteraviationa380
It’s great, unique and overall nice
Second, relaxing music
Well, JC Wings is making the interactive series so I can't wait to see what's installed
Yes, GJ uses the JC Wings mould. JC themselves released the cargolux 50 years livery and are going to release Korean Air Cargo soon.
I haven’t got one yet, probably just waiting for Christmas. I bet geminijets is relieved if they watched this, lol. Liked
the interactive series is awesome!

I've not seen reviews iui f thes as well Aviation18 & probably won't. I'm glad you are reviewing which thank you for sharing!
The interactive series has a lot of cracks, so I don’t like it to much
What a review! RIP to the engines. Really enjoyed all the expressions and points made and I highly agree with them. I would definitely think it would be an interesting element if they can make it to where the parts move all in one piece but time will only tell on that one. Awesome video!
Amazing
The air Bridge cargo one is my favourite of the 4 Because of the livery
They made a polar air that wasn’t dhl it was just polar that one is pretty cool
Can agree with you 100%, I would really love to see open door models in 1:200
We’re did you buy these I would love to get them

I'm Getting the CAROLUX this weekend..
The nose, cockpit, hump and the taper onto the main fuselage are very off in these moulds. I wonder if that’s a side effect of the interactive pieces? I would have also liked to see a hollow main deck for 1/200. Some little details, even only decals on the inside would be a great touch.
Why there isnt ups 747??
Love Geminijets, interactive is just amazing. Love the vid.
aviation 18,is there any other good models that you recommend or should i get a interactive 747? Plse reply soon :)
Please tell me do the wheels move?
I got a 747-8F in the UPS livery today, truly an amazing model but the engines wouldn’t stop falling off
I have a 1/400 Nippon Cargo Airlines 747-8F Interactive, and all the details and doors are really good👍
They do look very cool when the door are open. But when you close them, you see the massive gaps and the nose shape doesn't have the angle change. The hump on all Gemini -8Fs also looks too round in the back. Imo it looks like a cool but flawed effort by GJ but and very expensive.

4:53 that one dude at the movie
😂
I wonder if there will be a UPS 747-8f like this

Very interesting review lol I like this man! Ah I love my NG model Southwest Canyon blue from the Aug 2020
theres also a ups 747 8 that has a opening frount
6:15 the one group of people at the movie
😂😂
How do u remove the pieces can u do a tutorial on the interactive on how to remove and attach thank u
I’ve seen the Atlas Air 747-8F at Chicago before they are HUGE up close especially when your on a CRJ-700
When will they expand there series into other types other than 7478iF in 1:400 scale? Like 777, 767, MD-11’s
They have already expanded to include the 747-400f and 777-200f, I just haven’t covered them yet
@@Aviation18 could you try to buy them?
Just don’t complain about the 1/400 scale interactives are difficult now, i know its kinda difficult but now they decide to add a metal key like the 1/200 models
Where did you got this
This is going to be a great series, as I will watch the whole video!
Thanks man!
Aviation18 you’re welcome man!
great review. Waiting to get a cargolux retro 747 by Gemini, and a JC wings Korean Air Cargo 747 interactive.
You customized right?
My polar air came broken to
Great vid, very well produced 👍
Love your reviews!I can never be as good as you hahah🤣
Add Korean interactive 748 please
I like these overview videos Joe you should do more of these types of videos
Some of the doors just fall of when I pick it up😕
I think u are right
NO WAY! I was about to buy that atlas air 747, then it sold out. What are the odds that you bought it.
These planes look awesome, I want one now
Ive seen the atlas air 747 - 8F fly by before!
I don't know if you can't get the prices lower than what they retail for.

Is the GJ 747F terror
Great vid man😀
Nice video when's airport update of Dulles vids coning
Amazing as always!
Pretty epic review boss. Love it!

Why don’t they make a beluga and if they have it can you make a video about it
They do. JC wings made one a while back in 1/400 scale
1:16 what shop is dat
Did anyone notice the posterior side of the hump is too rounded? it should tapir off as it reaches the end. its a turn off!
Captain Joe has entered the chat...
Great video man 👍🏻
Thanks man and yeh, Doesn't Captain Joe fly the Cargolux?
I would love to see them make the Cathay pacific cargo and Singapore airlines cargo 747s, Great job👍👍
I personally liked the original 747 8f releases for abc cargolux and atlas air more than these. The originals weren’t interactive, but at least they were more durable
I order straight from a model shop at Heathrow airport called aviation retail direct. I’m ordering the catholic one for £54
I have been thinking about getting one of the interactive series but I don't know if I should get one if I can
I think it's worth to at least get one
@@Aviation18 oke I'll try to get one
R.i.p b747
I want them to do a KAL or Cathay one
Beautiful loved them a lot one day I am looking forward to get one it’s sad to see Gemini called u a brat other than that great review
I need that Polar and Atlas air 747-8F
They look very good. Good video.
How do you upload so fast bruhhhhh. And can I shoutout you?
The only thing I would say is that they are definitely too fragile. I can’t put the nose up because the latch got stuck and broke off.
Why are they so expensive tho
Casey Niestat vibes and I love it
lol Thanks man!
That is..... BEATIFUL WAaAa
Captian Joe is proud of the 748s you got lol
Hello! Great models and thanks for sharing!
Nice models👍👍. Liked
Thanks!
I wish Gemini jets would release a 1/400 scale of an A-10
That would be cool
how do you justify spending money on these, albeit being your hobby? I often have an internal struggle. I would spend days to filter out which one I want and just get the one.
I would actually love to have these aircraft, especially the ABC one, that exact 747-8F (VP-BBY) I’ve seen at my local airport. They’re a little pricey though unfortunately
Oh wow, that is cool, if you get the oportunity, you should defo get one
Aviation18 I am thinking about it, they’re expensive but a little lower than I would’ve thought. They look fantastic.
Love the polar
The ups one only cost me 50$
There are now 6 Interactive Series Aircraft
Atlas Air
Air Bridge Cargo
Cargolux
Polar
UPS
*NEW* Cargolux Mask
Those are awesome!
Nice!!
Cool
Is it worth it?
Awesome review
They expensive, why?
Bcz they great :)
Omg thank you so much for getting the 747 dhl polar air cargo I have another model idea for you it's the Qatar Airbus A380 and Qatar Airways airbus a340 u cant get them on aircraft model store or geminijets so just get them on ebay they might be a little expensive?
Now,they just made UPS one.Mine is on the way,can't wait for it because it was my first Interactive model.
Nice planes!!
Thanks!
you know you won't be getting the 1:400 models that easily if the price is the average price of 1:200 models
Yo that’s so cool
I have the air bridge cargo 747-8 i was lucky bc it cost 62 USD
Would be cool too see these models with hinges so you can open and close them without having to change pieces.
ams is expensive cuz my cargolux one costed 66$ us
Nice
U forgot about nippen cargo 747
Dude you got on recommended
same
Thx I’m going to get some cherees mate
Cool
