As long as there is no Lufthansa one they aren't worth a cent LOL ;D
I doubt they attract girls.

;D
really? i thought they were quite trendy.... they are very popular here in the UK, probably not in the states
Ah, never seen one here in the Netherlands. :)
They will only attract girls if they find out you're actually a pilot and earn $150,000 a year. ;D
hahahaha, they have a KLM bag tho ::) :laugh:
wellllll one day i'll be able to attract girls with them then 8)
I am of course just joking. :)

I have a few Skymarks, but I like GeminiJets 1/200 and 1/400 too (particulary 1/200, but they're a lot pricier than Skymarks, which are plastic models.) I have about 40 models.
My biggest love in my collection is this 1/200 all-metal Air Koryo Tu-154B-2 with moving ailerons and flaps. ;D
I also have a Frontier Airlines CV-580 t-shirt, British Airways Concorde t-shirt and an Aeroflot Tupolev Tu-114 t-shirt. ;D
I collect a lot of skymarks and some herpa... ill have to look at the gemini jets, at the moment im trying to collect all of FlyeBe's fleet hahaha, ive got about 20 skymarks... and a few odd ones,
I Have an MU-2 Model!!!! oh yea!
that air koryo model sounds insane, care to post a pic???
I have a british airways concorde cap that I bought in the concorde lounge, signed by a pilot on one of the last flights to london from new york, ( an amazing experience )
I love the Aeroflot bag... :-D It would be nice to have thos bags with AZ, EK, SQ and QF colors...
I like the london city airways one....
the classic style is my favourite ;D
AZ, EK, SQ, QF??????

Bah, the battery of the camera is dead... I'll make some pics with my iPhone then.
edit: Here they are...
Really, I advise you should get a GeminiJets 1/200 at least once. You'll love them (this T154 is not a GeminiJets btw)
When I got my first, I wanted to sleep with it. ;D

THAT IS ONE NICE MODEL! wow! I'll look into gemini jets now... you is 1/200 the biggest ones they make?
I'll have to post a few pictures myself now! :P
This is a Phoenix models Tu-154, but I find the GeminiJets models to be even more realistic. Yes, 1/200 is the biggest. Here is my OpenSkies 757-200 accompanied by my BA BAe 146 (both GeminiJets)
[attachment expired]
Those are really nice!
it wont let me upload my pics :(
do the gemini jets come with a stand??
where do you get these guys? online?
I've got plenty of aircraft models which I've collected over the last 3-4 years.
Skymarks:
Ryanair 737-800 (1:130) because its what I flew on FS9 most of the time
KLM 737-800 (1:130) because I loved the 737-800 with winglets, and the KLM colour scheme
Easyjet A319 (1:150) because I was living in Luton at the time
Emirates A380 (1:200) because I flew on one
FlyBE Q400 (1:100) because I'm now in Southampton, a base of theirs
Next in line is a FlyBE E-195 to complete the fleet
Herpa Wings:
Cathay Pacific 747-400ERF (1:200) because I had just been to Hong Kong

Good choice sir. All my metal 1:400s are GJs and I love them! Do note that they're pretty small. (average ± 12cm depending on the aircraft)
They may be little but I've got large (Revell 1:144 A320 (BMI), A380 (Lufthansa) and A300-600ST (WIP) so I don't mind.
It also cost me £9.50 (€10.82, $15.53) so against list prices I'm happy with it as a cash strapped student!
And on that note what are the names to look for? I assume GeminiJets is one, what about others?

SkyMarks do the cheapest models, they are plastic and usually around 1:200 scale.
Seeing as you're in the UK, check out Aviation Retail Direct (http://www.aviationretaildirect.co.uk/skelapp/w3store/store.asp)
I love the model of the F-4 in Blue Angels livery... Beautiful! Until a few years ago I used to assemble plastic models from Tamyha: my fav one was the F-14D in 1:48 scale... I had to buy an airbrush because I couldn't risk to make a crappy painting job with a brush! In the end i put it on a small diorama resembling the deck of a CV... Sold it for 200€ to a FBO at BGY! ;)
