Tucano's crap Nalanji Dreaming model.

[hkgspotter1]

If you have about US$ 60 to waste I think this is the model for you.

Now after you buy it have a look at the nose, you know its printed `NALANJI DREAMING'.....WRONG !

Its painted ..... WUNALA DREAMING images/smiles/icon_eek.gif laff.gif

No joke they put Wunala Dreaming on the Nalanji dreaming mode shake.gif

Tucano? Crap?

Go figure! images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif

Tucano are just in the business to make a fast buck. Now we have:

Herpa
Gemini
Starjets
Dragon
Aeroclassics
Net Models
Big Bird

and others.....

They dont see that the market is SWAMPED with models and just make more and more of the same models. This does not help the collector.

Herpa, Gemini, Star Jets, Dragon Wings, Tucano, Big Bird, Dream Jets, Flying Colours, Skyliners, Aeroclassics, Biggest Bird, Charlie Bravo, Hasegawa, Hogan, SKYJETS400, Jet-X, Schuco, Seattle Model Aircraft Company... there's more. images/smiles/icon_rolleyes.gif

Seems WAY too many people are interested only in making $$$ in this hobby unfortunately. Its really turning me off. images/smiles/icon_mad.gif images/smiles/icon_mad.gif images/smiles/icon_mad.gif

That's a silly mistake if they do that with too many models they will go out of business.

You are all so right!

You wouldn't believe how many different model manufacturers there are now. The worst part is that they all look more or less the same in detail and all cost the same!!! My goodness, you'd expect the competition to bring costs down a little but it hasn't!

I remember the days when I was young where the only model plane's I saw in shops was Schabak!

I quit buying models, now I use that money to buy Kodachrome 64 and get more pleasure out of taking photos. But I will keep all my models, even the sample Gemini models I have. :D
