Who makes Star Jets?

Hey all, I collect 1:400 scale models and I wanted to maybe give a try to the 1:500 scale again (Herpa sorta pi**ed me with their aweful landing gear)
So I had heard somewhere that Gemini Jets owns Star Jets, is this true?

Schuco is a European toymaker. GJ/SJ make models for them for their European market which are/will be released as general SJ/GJ releases.

No, BB are owned by Aviation Center Hong Kong. They then ask the factory that make AeroClassics to make them their models for them. JAUK....

Wink Owned by US guys!

As I know, BB is ownedy a group of US guys. ACHK is just a shadow.

Starjets is owned by one person (Mr. Asher)

Geminjets are owned by Mr. Asher and other US people.
