Very clear and informative. NG is the clear winner here, but that cockpit is a huge shame... Anyways, I've been thinking of getting it so thanks for the in-depth review.
Excellent review. Thank you
NG will always be the winner! I love NG models. Geminijets can do better but they prefer not to.
NG won this time, but I've had one where Gemini beat NG too. But I 100% agree, Gemini can rival NG easily, but they simply don't.
@@rpgiv3175oh most definitely.. Hopefully Geminijets get their act together and listen to us as aviation enthusiasts consumers. Thank you for what you do and keep up the good work. 😉
How durable are these models in case my son gets ahold of it??
@williesam3270 The overall structure is fairly durable. The fragile parts are the small details (antennae, missile fins, and probes). They are hard to see and can easily break if handled incorrectly. If your son can easily grab the model, I wouldn't recommend getting it. I didn't treat my models carefully when I was younger and I broke a lot of them. If he knows how to handle it and treat it gently, then you should be fine.
@@rpgiv3175 thank you much! I want to start getting into building these!
@@williesam3270 Cool! If you're looking for plastic kits, there's plenty of them out there. Plastic Kits take time to build, but you can customize them to exactly how you want them. They aren't as durable or heavy as the pre-built diecast ones though.
Were do you get them, because I'm possibly starting an ho scale train layout and i am looking for mini sirens to go with it
@@SamuelSoza-gg9um I buy them here ralphratcliffemodels.com/index.php?route=product/category&path=65
@@rpgiv3175 thanks!
nice model bro! Also, have you consider get the tamiya 1/100 one?
@Spacenerd_editz it's on my list! I'll pick it up eventually. There's no telling when though, I'm about to head back into school so I won't have time for any kits
gosh, all the model makers are gonna forget about the SILST pod?! , also what its that metalic color on the engines god.
The reason for that is because of the mould they use to make the parts. It wouldn't be cost-effective to try and recreate the SILTS pod when none of the other shuttles had it. The metallic color on the SSMEs is something a lot of manufacturers do for some reason, even if the engines are more dull brown and gray
@@rpgiv3175 i know, but this model it’s about columbia, so it must have it
🎉😂❤😂🎉🎉😅🎉😂

I like the scheme on it, it’s pretty cool. I’d like to get the F104 in this scheme
Have you gotten an F-35 model yet? If so could you provide me a link please.
Great and detailed review! This aligns with my recent experience as well, Gemini Jets has been disappointment after disappointment, while NG models consistently knocks it out. Misprinted details, misaligned printing, paint defects, crooked wings, stabilizers, landing gears, tons of QC issues with Gemini Jets for the price in recent years!
Have to agree. Gemini dropped the ball with this one in comparison to NG. Thanks for the video. You got a new sub
Hey man, do you know any producer that makes accurate RS-25 engines at this scale? It’s for my hasegawa shuttle.
@@Spacenerd_editz unfortunately I don't. I've seen people used burnt plastic or bent paper clips to make the pipes
Yours turned out very cute, once again awesome video!👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Doubly awesome! I love sirens and also love little models, so this is great to watch!
just noticed that the bullet looks like the british black arrow, anyways the A-10 its such a cold aircraft! Also you look so happy at the photos where you are in the planes LoL
Definitely going to have to get a version of this
The aircraft was transferred to Davis-Montham squadron and assigned to the A-10 demonstration team. It can be seen at air shows, but this is the last year for the demo team. Great model and detailed review 👍🏻
Looks amazing! Definitely gonna buy one with my spare money.
The A-10 was always one of my favorite jets!
Can't go wrong with the warthog!
They did what revell can’t
@Spacenerd_editz you can say that again! Revell doesn't give a rap about making new tooling for real life spacecraft models. They seriously need to update their shuttle tooling. I don't want to imagine what their Saturn V kits are like
@@rpgiv3175 also, im SO mad that every time they come again with a shuttle model or other models, they just change the box! Like they could like fix or remake the models? Since they are so inacurate and impossible to build if you don’t have experience.
Super incredible f 18
This is absolutely fantastic. Love it. I have the gemini, and there is no perfect model for sure, had multiple opportunities to get the inflight, which I should but something about it lets me down. the engines are just not right. The nose I wish was the gemini mould, and the engines should go to inflight to make the best model in my opinion. I need the inflight a320 with IAE engines to add to my collection. thats gonna take a minute to find.
@16abind thank you! Glad you liked it. I think if inflight and Gemini swapped a few parts and inflight improved their painting, inflight would have done a lot better. I also have the IAE A320 and A319 in the new united livery from inflight. Those models aren't perfect but I love them both.
@@rpgiv3175 do you have content on the inflight version?
@@16abind the A319 and A320? Yes I do, hang tight

@rpgiv3175 Thanks, your so lucky to have that a320. I'll be lucky to find that
I have a model review request for you: 1/400 delta 767-400 skyteam livery It would be really cool if you could do it!! Thanks!
I unfortunately do not have that model, sorry!
No worries! Keep up the great videos, your uploads have helped me with deciding to buy tons of other models
ur siren model is dope! 10/10
Can you review a few more aircraft that are preserved? Military or Civil
Lovely video man what was the song at the intro?
It's the intro loop for the song in thr video, called "Clubbed to death" kzread.info/dash/bejne/gat717WJiLPfiJc.html
@@rpgiv3175 thanks man cant wait for more of your commercial aircraft reviews
nice model, are you planning making an airport?
In 1/200 scale, no. I have an airport in 1/400 scale
I have the same model!
Just won this beauty in a bid! Can’t wait to receive it!
❤
Do you have the Gemini Jets 1/400 United A321neo?
No
Thanks for sharing
Video Suggestion, you should show your entire collection or a room tour where you keep them all, just to see how many you got. Anyways, take your time on videos and just take it easy!
Funny you mention this, I have 2 of those sitting around that I haven't uploaded yet. I need to do that.
@@rpgiv3175 , it'd be cool to see all your models in 1 shot. it'd look massive. have you seen the geminijets store in las vegas?
Does Gemini200 have a better mold on the 737 in general than Inflight200?
Yes, far better. This applies for all variants of the 737. The classic, the NG, and the MAX
Just wanted to say that the tail curve at 5:27 is mostly accurate, that detail isn’t a production issue, instead its an exact replica of the detail present on the actual 777, you may notice this once you look just a little closer at the top ends of 777s’ vstabs
Not trying to get the nerd emoji but the title says 1/200…
I am so fired, thanks for spotting that!
@@rpgiv3175 Nah it’s all good, I just thought that NG actually released a 1/200 A320 mould😆
Awesome review as always, are you going to review the Phoenix models JetBlue a320 in the new livery?
Thanks! I don't have the Phoenix version, but if I get it I will review it
@@rpgiv3175 ah ok so are you planing on getting it?
@@Mo_Aviation not as of right now. If I happen to find one at my local model store when I go next week then yes, I will get it
a320 family aircraft have fowrard tilted nose gear
Thanks bud :)
5:55 wow you have amazing eyes, just like me. This was the first thing I noticed when I received my Delta A321neo from NG Models. Such an amazing mode, yes the engines a little big and low, but this was okay, but this window line thing really bothers me. Since then I haven't bought another A321neo as they all seem to have that issue. The Gemini 200 E175s I dont like, seems to be the the window line is a lot too low, looks strange. The nose of the Gemini 200 A32X looks awful thats true, this is why I never got one. To me looks more like a Tu-204/214. I can agree with the quality of NG Models going south, such a shame. They rather concentrate on quality than pushing out an endless amount of models every month.
Oh my goodness that thing is really tiny!
(the thunderbolt 1003)
It’s really cool how you have a small version of my favorite siren
Hmmm id wait for the Ng one coming soon
Yes, NG just released this one too. However, the NG mould has incorrect main gear covers the last time we heard about the mould.
@@rpgiv3175oh i See. Man im trying to get the normal 737 max 10 united at my local store but they have that blue And green livery for the SAF only.
@@rpgiv3175 I See. Man i Saw your 737 max 10 united video And it was so good. I cant Find that livery at my local store. Only the SAF eco demonstrater livery,
mine also has that wing paint issue
This is nice
No No
I don't understand
