Can seasoned collectors shed some light on how they rate Blue Box models? Are their models made with plastic or metal?

NEVER buy anything related Blue Box/Netmodels. They are the worst die cast aircraft models in the industry that have alot of errors in textures/mould of aircraft etc. Only buy Big Bird, AeroClassics, Gemini Jets, Dragon Wings mainly as they are main stream manufacturers.

Wait for the Gemini Jets/Phoenix version or hopefully the Dragon Wings version if you want something of good quality and money's worth.

No problem, once I see the pics of the actual model then I shall decide if I have to make a exception. Pheonix models and Dragon wings will hopefully make it. PX uses the Gemini Jets mould for its A310 so hopefully if PX does it in the near future it will be of good quality.

Samee, find out if Toymax can tell you when they will release the pics?

Wait till its released, and then judge it. I have the B.Box GF and CX Tristars and aside from the tail seam, they are very good models.

That's the only aircraft model that is worth buying - which was a huge suprise to many buyers. However, check out their B747 mould and you will see what I mean!

Pre-order at Eztoyz website already taking place;

No arguing on that one. Their 747 mould is utter crap.
