    Something I learned after making the video is that this model was made exclusively for Aviation Retail Direct, a model store in England! Hence why its so hard to find.

    Whoa that’s truly such an epic mould. Wish this wasn’t an exclusive as I’d love to get this over the GJ version!

      It's still in stock at MyHobbyHouse and ARD (though I've read ARD won't get theirs until March. That's unconfirmed though don't take my word for it). I say get one while you can! It's certainly expensive but well worth it

    Do the model companies make new batches of thier planes? Cuz NG has like no Air Canada stuff, Qantas A380 only seems to be on ebay in a few spots...

      @rpgiv3175  ปีที่แล้ว

      They unfortunately do not. As of now, all diecast model aircraft manufacturers make limited edition production runs, so when a plane is out of stock, it's likely out of stock for good

    If compared, Is Aviation400 mould better than phoenix models or Gemini Jets?

    If I did not buy a Lufthansa 787-9 by AV400 for EWR, I 100% would’ve bought this! Looks stunning

      I imagine that the Lufthansa 787 is an awesome model too. The A380 is still in stock in some places so if you have some cash to spare, I say pick one up!

      @@Hawaiianair2121 I bought it from MyHobbyHouse. They're pretty expensive over there. If you choose to order a model, pay in ringgits (MYR) and have your bank or payment service convert it for you, its usually cheaper that way. I don't know of any retailers in the US who have it so this is the only one I can recommend

      @@rpgiv3175 Thank you so much for the link! I’ll probably just wait to see if Midwest or west coast diecast will get it in stock as I don’t know how long it’s gonna take to ship from overseas.

      @@Hawaiianair2121 it's actually quite fast, usually a week or so depending on where you are. West coast diecast got their set and it looks like they're out of stock already and I don't know if they're doing restocks. Midwest model store doesn't carry AV400 as far as I'm aware. But if that changes let me know! Good luck getting one

    This is amazing! Which retailer did you get this from? I’ve been waiting to get mine from ARD or Airspotters, but they said they won’t be in England until March.
