In decal will be both Russian Post Tu-204Cs, and yes, all this models will sell only wia Russian Post offices. But i think not a big problem -  this model will resell via Ebay.

I can't remember for certain but I think I've only seen 4 Tu204's, the RB211 powered one at Farnbourgh '92, two TNT's (Cairo Aviation) at EDI and I think I also got a passenger Cairo Aviation one out of EDI too. Wonder if it will get a rebox in other colours later? Would like a Cubana Cargo.

Wish we could buy this blue gem straight from zvezda site, this kit would be a great hit on sales outside Russia. I've been wanting to have this one for such a long time, let's hope this kits became available to us somehow.

Well it's almost a 757!

Just what I was thinking wonder if it's more difficult to turn into a 757 than what masquerades as a 757 from Minicraft? :poop:

That's because it is currently not sold outside "Russian Post" offices and therefore is not available for major distributors. Once current batch with blue plastic and "Russian Post" decals is sold out I would expect a reissue, possibly with different decals, and rather sooner than later.

Thanks Pin understand that.

Would be interesting to see what the retail price is in the post office though.

If I remember correctly they were priced on ebay around £40 - 45 and £20 - 25 for p&p.

What ever way outside my idea of pricing so will wait and see the what the reissue brings.

In Russian Post offices this model cost about 900 rubles - 12-13 GBP.

 

If you are not fun of blue painted Tu-204C - in future Zvezda will release passanger and cargo versions with other decals.
