I like it! I already have the SJ one but I will get this one too. I like the extra detail on the engine cowlings, also, is it just me or did they paint the exaust cones in different colors? I think that should be standard printing detail

Question

Is it me or is it really a new 747 cockpit imprint on this model - if this is not again the 'sleepy eyes'-looking windshield, I´ll buy this one as first Herpa 747NG!

hmm...looks like Herpa is starting to get into the detail department on their regular releases.

Herpa has added some markings on powerplant nacelles-- That's fine!

However, those engines are still in a wrong angle. The rear part of engines should be tilted downards a little bit. And the shape of cockpit windows frame still left something to be desired.

Come on Herpa, please give some more efforts on your 744NG releases. They're good, but you really can make them even better!

Cheers,
N4522V

I still don't think this model is as good as the Starjet one. The Starjet looks more like a real plane, it has that solid good quality look about it which the Herpa lacks.

Question

Why they use a photo different from the model inside? The Skyteam logo beside the cockpit window is missing in the photo.
