Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

I guess this is one of the best releases.. 777-200, -300, -300ER and a 787! What's the price?

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

*Comic guy voice on* Worst. Release. Ever. *Voice off*

Ugly livery, less than interesting models, less than perfect moulds. It's good to see that F-toys are active, but they could've chosen something much more interesting.

I always buy these. But this one I'll pass. Too many 1/300 planes. But nice custom candidates. But after the release of the Potatowing models F-toys are really falling behind on the moulds. The gears are getting worse (the painting is horrible), the seam on the top and bottom of the fuselage is huge (but easy to file away when you do custom models). Too bad...

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

Please make a United (Battleship livery), AA, Continental or Delta wing collection instead of one more JAL or ANA...

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

Some time ago I was going to buy the JAL stretched upper deck 741 with PW engines. However, I decided not to do so because of the reasons mentioned above (poor quality).

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

Great set! However, I prefer to buy the planes separately... let's see if this will pop pout on eBay. I would like the 767 and 787...

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

Are there detailed photos of the F-Toys models? I have found a JAL n. 4 set at a good price but i am not able to understand if they are (at least) nice! It seems they are better than Herpa OG models, but far from the NG and a nice quality. I don't know, i cna't decide because there aren't detailed photo of the molds (particularly the nose). Any of you can help me?
Thanks.

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

I have just found them, but i already can't decide. Some molds seems nice, other awful...it costs around 100 euro (including shipping) but i don't know if the set (and the models) deserves these money.
The B787, B767 and B737 nose is nice, but then all the B777 are not so good; and the B787 seems a "toy" rather than a diecast model...but the name is "F-Toys" so the manufacturer tells you what you have to expect.

The 777 is good but what kills it is the front landing gear....
they're not diecast, Charter! It's made of plastic, as far as I know.
I really liked the 737-800, and the 767-300ER looks good too.

You're right Leonardo. But i'm one of the few members who like the new JAL livery, and i would like the B777-300ER and the B767-300 (made by Hogan), but it seems they disappeared from the planet.

Re: NEW F-Toys JAL Wings Collection #4

Maybe it is only the photos but the quality seems better than in case of previous releases, particularly the 747s.
