I think the Gulf Air 787 depends on some decent light to be shown in, because in some photos it looks more like the Etihad sandy livery than in others.. Still, I do appreciate you taking the time to compare the models.

For me the Gulf Air 787 just looks beautiful - even if maybe not as in reality.
What anoys me more is the glitter on the engines....they should just be golden

Lovin the additions.
Especially Norwegian Air.
Does anyone know if the Arthur Collins livery is available in 1:500?

Thanx for your comment. Arthur Collins livery is not available until now. })

Thank you for your interesting pictures. I'm not a big fan of the A380, have only a few left in my collection and I'm surprised that this fat bird looks so cool in the new LH-livery. The Iberia A320 neo also looks much better than expected.

I agree with getifero on the Lufthansa A380, the Herpa model makes the livery look surprisingly decent. The Air Tahiti Nui 787-9 is my favourite, such a gorgeous livery. The chevrons still look good on the seven-eight.

That comparison on the Concorde is eye-opening. Never realized the wings were indeed that thick on the model, but when you see it..

Great shots as per usual. The Westjet 787 looks very sleek IMHO.

The Concorde is indeed very nice!!! That Westjet 787 is also a beauty!

Thanx for the comments. Actually I still don't why Herpa decided do the Concorde wings that thick, because the old generation Concorde had thin wings and it looked much better.

I didn't plan to buy the -001 because I thought it's just a registration change. But then I realized that Herpa changed a lot at this model. The windows are different and the orange at the back is moving upwards. After searching pictures of the original planes I have to say: Good job, Herpa.
