At such a depressing time like now, with the COVID-19 pandemic in full effect, I have turned to my hobby of die cast model airplane collecting to keep my spirits up!
Earlier this month, I visited my friend Elliot at Gemini Jets HQ in Las Vegas, NV. I take a look at the entire Gemini Jets collection in 1:200 and 1:400 scale on display. These special die-cast model aircraft include a Qantas B787 100th,a Boeing 747 Dreamlifter, a Thai Royal Barge 777-300, a Lufthansa 747-8, a Emirates A380, a British Airways B747 and a KLM B747.
I also look at a model airport set up and the warehouse of Gemini Jets. The 1:200 A380 in Gemini Jets weighs 3.8 lbs, that's a lot of weight for a model airplane!
Are you a model airplane collector? If so, share with me your favourite model airplane.

It’s only a matter of time...
High Flyer Oh no...
High Flyer we have such similar names 😂
High Flyer oh godddd I hope not
This video should be named: "A Trip To The Paradise"
If I owned all those models I’d be the most happiest person ever ever ever….
Your comment is a certified classic

If I had all of this I would never leave that room
I’m so jealous

WOW!!! WHAT AN OUTSTANDING COLLECTION. I WOULD LOVE TO HAVE A PRINTOUT OF ALL THE AIRPLANES THAT'S ON DISPLAY. THANKS SAM FOR SHOWING US SUCH BEAUTIFUL COLLECTIONS.
I'd buy those. I don't care if it's expensive or if I'm in severe credit card debt I'd still buy it😂
Thanks sharing, very very impressive in your collection and warehouse. Nice detail on the airliners especially for there size.
Me: I’ll buy your entire stock
Also me: *Looks at my bank account* I’ll come back tomorrow
Johnston Steiner wow 4 mins ago
Been a proud GeminiJets collector since the very beginning! Also got a chance to deal with Elliott on a business level as a distribution hub. Very nice and friendly guy to work with! Keep them coming!
Hey Sam. Nice video.
I've been collecting Schabak 1/600 scale models since the 1980's.
Love them because of the small size.
I have one Gemini Jet Air Jamaica A320 model because I'm from Jamaica and used to fly on them. Also, it was the best color scheme of any airline, ever!
🙂
Finally, Another Person Who Has Schabak Models!
I love collecting Die-cast models of different types of aircraft, I like the 1:400 size, I also have a few 1:200 size. My favorite plane is the AN-225 in 1:400 size.
Thank you GEMINI JETS.
my favourite model is the Gemini Jets Emirates a380 expo 2020 livery, would love to visit this shop
yeah mine is the air new zealand 777-200. Sadly they are about to retire them.
tuiairways 558 I agree
I think it’s in Las Vegas
Illinois Cooney there also going to retire the a380 in a couple of years
Alex3Gaming Li me to
When i was young
Koreanair=pepsi airline
lol the logo for that airline still makes me think of pepsi
Yea, K.
Noah L. same i always thought it delivered only pepsi
i always thought that pepsi had an airline
They took it from South Korean flag but they couldn't use it exactly the same because of the law. So they added white stripe in the middle and that made it look like pepsi logo 😅
My favorite model is the JetBlue E190 in the “Blueprint” livery. Not only because I flew on that plane once, but, I really love the detail on that livery. :)
I am literally sooooooooooooo jealous right now! 😫, a look at a humongous plane collection like that is super satisfying! :0
My wallet: *please don’t bro*

Since Sam cant fly he is doing the next best thing. Truly and aviation addict.
Oh my god ....they are all magical and amazing ..each of them are a masterpiece .
Unbelievable precision .
2:00 Random deep fried moment.
Sam, thank you for your fun and energetic travel / aviation videos. I have recently discovered your work and really enjoyed watching several of your travel vlogs. This vlog on die cast jets was terrific. You asked for us to respond in the comment section with info on our favorite jet. My favorite is definitely the Pan Am 747 Clipper from 1968. My grandparents were between California and Hawaii. Therefore, each trip on the Clipper was a trip to see my grandparents in Hawaii or California. My favorite jet to collect isn't so much a jet. It's the models of the space shuttle orbiters.
This is great video. I had no idea there were so many models made of jet airliner. I’m heading my way to their website now.
Hey Sam your videos are very entertaining to watch. I am a huge airplane model fan but I only have 1 model. And the reason to that is because in Canada there is no Gemini jets headquarters. It would be awesome if they added another one in Canada. But anyways I have been a fan for such a long time.I appreciate ur time and effort on these amazing videos. Thank you!
Good video Sam. My favourite is the "Queen Of The Skies" the 747 and when it comes to military ones I can't go past the SR-71 Blackbird.
I take it that you don't care much for the "Fat Old Hag Of The Skies" the A380 😉
Hey Sam, I love how you branch off on different aspects of aviation, to even a passionate hobby about aviation. It's like a nice treat for us aviation enthusiast. Speaking of which, have you ever been or heard of Miniatur Wunderland? It's a small mini world controlled by smart chips in each vehicle, aircraft, and etc.
What made them so popular, was the miniatur airport that's modeled after Hamburg. It's amazing the amount of detail they put into their projects, literally everything has it's own function and is operated by a smart computer, that move and perform various task. The miniatur wonderland even has working boats and submarines! Anyways, I'm getting off topic, but would love to see you make a video about the miniatur airport, if you ever get a chance. Keep up the great work!
4:27 same! I love collecting old/retro model planes, I don't know why, I just like seeing retor planes (like 747 classic & Dc-10)
Indeed I am Sam! Northwest 747-400 Diecast classic bowling theme livery! Great video!! Thank you!!!
4:50 "I actually flew on this EXACT plane..." Wow, he must've been tiny when he was younger.
That's cool! And I've never traveled in a plane, but I will go to Turkey!
😂😂
@@JohnSmith-be5py the most generic name ever lol
He means the exact plane that the model was supposed to replicate.
@@moneymark6927 ...I figured that...I was joking...I don't believe any human could actually fit into that model...it's called making a joke...
1:22 a moment every avgeek has experienced
Aviation8811 😂 yes
This is really good! Thanks for the entertainment Sam
Everyone has to agree that Sam Chui’s videos never keep us bored
Sam's spent so much time in the sky, he's probably a billionth of a second younger than all of us
3:32 Philippines represent
Great video Sam. Igot 5 of these for my birthday and getting 5 more for Christmas.
Wow really fantastic Dear Sam! Nice
If I lived near this store I would visit this store everyday
I do
Where is the store

@@Jonas-jo2hx lol
Could you please list the address. The website is not very clear. Thanks!
Me: Wait, i got a concorde?
China: yes.
Also China: **gives me a toy tupalev*
Wouldn't that be Russian??
@@ttv-crqzy8 nah
you spelled tupolev wrong
@@paultang8766 lol
Great video, my personal favourite is my 1:200 Northwest Bowling Shoe 747-400. I hope to see an LTU MD-11 and Air Pacific 747-200 in 1:200 scale one day!
What an awesome video. It’s good to see where our model collection originates from before it hits eBay and other buying portals. In my case my favorite model is Angola 🇦🇴 Boeing 747 and Boeing 777 (old livery) I myself collect 1:200 models and have my own 1:200 airport scale model in Miami. Thanks for the awesome videos!
I love how the upload date is April 1, 2020
Lol
Lolol
Lol yeah is this real?
this was a joke

I went here back in 2012 and bought about 60 or 70 planes in one go. TheAirplaneShop made 14 year old me extremely happy. Thanks for those memories.
😮🎉😅
Bros loaded
The fact you casually just say that you did that at 14 means your parents spoiled you massively as a child and you probably don't know how much milk costs
@@Elbowbanditest2003 maybe he/she/they paid with his/her/their *OWN MONEY* !?
huh ? where did you get the money ?
Absolutely fantastic !!! :-)
Problem with Gemini is it is so hard to find some of the real cool older models. The Aeromexico 767-300 in the old school chrome livery is still a bucketlist find of mine. On that note I feel very fortunate to have gotten my Avianca 767 when I did.
I can get you one 😜. What country are you in?
yeah the bigger the scale, the harder to find the plane in the livery you want.
@@iainmillar1532 v
My favorite was the md-11 I use to build them here in sandiego ca. Do you carry them?
there is more of a chance of finding the livery you want on eBay
He doesn’t have Air Koryo? I don’t see it. That’s a shame
He has. Well at least geminijets has.
Kim Jong-un LMAO i was thinking the same thing😪
isnt this joke dead
Convo Aviation this doesn’t sound like a joke
Kim Jong-un, Air Koryo is a great airline! I recommend it because it is da best! (it’s the best because it’s the only airline in The Great Korea)
My favourite airplane model would have to be a skymarks Qantas 747-400 VH-OJU in the boxing kangaroo livery. Great video by the way, i love it🖒❤
#Skymarks
I like the 747-400 with the tiger on the nose...my favorite.
@@williamfore2478 Transerio it was I think?
I just got my GeminiJets 1:400 scale Icelandair Boeing 737 Max 8, and it's amazing!
I watch this ones a week or twise i love the models so much i cant stop watcin
“My local model airplane shop”
*gemini headquarters*
Ikr
What a lovely store!!!! I would definetely visit that store! I've a lot of models in my bedroom, I guess around the 100. My personal favourite is the BMI A320 1:50 model and the Air New Zealand 747 - Lord of the Rings livery. Thanks for this video Sam, enjoying your videos!
This is the best vid i watch it every day
Very good quality and impressive i love old discontinued models and membership models at that time. Classic.
Me: *walks into Gemini jets shop*
Also me: “Where are the ng models?”
The employee: “What did you say?”
I like NGModels
Haha
GJ: GIT OUTTA HERE!
Shouldn’t have said that.
I should NOT have said that.
No plane with a “Sam Chui” livery ?
And Sam... since you say you collect models since the 90’s, can you also show your collection?
This video was incredible
I have to say my favourite model is 100% the Gemini 200 BA 787-10 G-ZBLA it's such a fantastic looking model, the 777-300ER is another fab model too. But the Gemini Jets HQ in Vegas is definitely on the bucket list for places to visit.
The 747-400 was the first plane I was ever able to identify (around 7 years old) and it has been my dream to fly on one ever since. I have looked at them through airport terminal windows for years. In fact a few years ago I saw a KLM 747-400 at Chicago O’Hare and I got so excited. It truly is the plane that started my love of aviation.
Amazing story ke❤p up the good work!
Sam, thanks to you and this particular video, I have finally started my model airline collection. You were just like a kid in the candy store and you covered this so well that I purchased my first model at 1:00 in the morning. Talk about a million mile man, you have more than definitely worn those shoes.
Which model
I want that terminal. Amazing collection!
Sam I love your vids keep it up I also love Jetstar and Korean air
I know there is a lot of younger people coming into this hobby and that's great! It keeps it alive, but I'd still love to see more older liveries. Nostalgic to my childhood. Hard to choose just one favorite though. One is the Delta 727-200 in the widget, another is the Northwest 744 in the bowling shoe, and 3rd is my southwest canyon blue 733, one that got away is the Delta L-1011-500 would be in heaven if I ever got one.
Something different for April Fools, I like it. Nice collection. I like their Concordes the most. Reminds me of the Knuffingen miniature airport in Hamburg.
Yea it reminds me too
Even if I can't buy any model planes, the images are very nice, I liked your video very much.
Oh wow! He's got the Alaska Airlines Salmon Thirty-Seven! I've flown on that plane! Very cool collection!
This is my dream shop. I also have a collection of some planes. I travel on planes as per the aircraft configuration. 747 is my favorite aircraft and its the first plane I flew. Good work Sam, I am fan of your work also.
I remember my first time at the Gemini Jets store. I called my friends waiting outside and told them they can leave and I would call them when I am ready to leave. I was there for a while! I was in complete awe.
Excellent and very very wonderful 😊👍
This video gave me the last little push to start collecting these diecast plane models (1:200), together with the retirement of the KLM 744. So the first one I bought in april 2020 was the Inflight200 version of the KLM 744 (PH-BFT) with a collectors coin. Now we're 19 months further and I'm currently sitting on 61 models, which 27 of them are KLM. All by Gemini, Inflight, JFox, WB-Models, Herpa, Aviation200 and JCWings.
It's been a little financial disaster, but it's my little financial disaster which makes me a happy man! And the fact the Aviation Megastore south of Schiphol is just a 80 minute drive (doesn't) help!
Who says young people dont like old planes that are historic?!
Yes
His sales figures say that.
Uh! I believe the seller himself
Dude. I know right my favorite is the constellation.
@@jabobthegod yes
That Chromed colored American Airlines looks sick!!❤️ Also love the airport terminal model.
Thx for record this vid
Litterally crying of pleasure and joy while watching this video 😭😭😭and sure, absolutely jealous
The Air Jamaica 727 4:30! Classic. Always wanted one!
I only have one plane in my collection so far. An Emirates 777-300ER
WOW! A day wouldn't be enough to look at every single one of those model. I'm drooling just by watching your video Sam!
Wow what a collection it’s insane 😱🤯😍
Seeing all these beautiful models make me so jealous
Those are the best model planes I’ve ever seen in my whole life! I wish I could go there!
Great video!
I mean,i think you can but you probably wouldn't be able to buy any of them
(Why are these so goddamn expensive aaA)
@@RayanfhoulaBR there detailed and there made out of metal
I would love to see your model aeroplane collection!!
Those are some awesome airplanes :)
Sounds like a road trip very soon. I recently started collecting few planes for my husband. ❤
.
easily
Same
same maybe a week too XD
Same bro!
I always spend about 30 minutes looking for the model I want, then another 30 just admiring all the rest. I could easily spend a long time there but I gotta restrain myself otherwise I’d be walking out with a box full 😅
I was looking to get models for my home office, looks like i found the perfect fit. Since we can't fly, looks like i got a new hobby.
Yes I have been collecting for the last couple years. I love my Gemini jets. Air Tahiti 787.
Very Nice airplanes! And the airport is very nice aswell🛫
It would be nice if you showed us a airbus beluga XL
My dream ! 😍😍 I want to visit this place , so I added it to my bucket list .
I love this models , I built some using origami but still nothing can outshine it .
Lovely
1:54 I've seen that aircraft in real life, it was amazing.
This is fantastic
My favorite airplane is the airbus a350 for sure. I just love how its cockpit window, makes it look like is has sunglasses on.
Wow, I can spend my whole day going through these model planes.
I luv 737s.. And q400.. My favourite
Yqu Gp mine is A340
A350 and B757
This is really amazing. I have heard in USA they have phew model plane shops in Newark, Las Vegas, Miami etc. My favorite model plane is Singapore Airlines which i have in Phoenix Die- Cast model.
Awesome Video
Wow nice plane Sam!
My favorite A380, Really hope that one day there will be A380 register in Indonesia... ✈️
My Favorite Is "Queen Of The Skies" And "King Of The Skies" Boeing 747 And Airbus A380.
I watch this video every single time

Person: what plane would you like?
Me: I’ll take your entire stock
O_O
1m dollars pls
9m please do it for me today okay 👌
i would want everything from dhaka airport the terminal planes and runway pls
New to the model planes this year - already, the most impressive ones I’ve seen are Gemini’s A350 and 747-8
My fav model is Emirates B777-300ER.
I don’t know why but it’s so special to me and I love it ❤️❤️
Man, I am so late to this 1/200 scale planes game! I only just became aware of these sweet models just a few months ago. My first was a Gemini Jets 1/200 UPS MD-11. I love it! I want to get one of each type of UPS planes, including all of the variants of their 747's. Along with many of the other freighter 747's from other airlines too. I hope Gemini will do another Battleship Grey United 747-400, as I actually flew in one of those in May 1999.
