Skodadriver Posted November 26, 2020 Posted November 26, 2020 There is already a thread about this and the other Zvezda releases
Homebee Posted March 2, 2021 Author Posted March 2, 2021 3D renders Source: https://vk.com/zvezdamodels?w=wall-29859496_2635755 Quote First 3D-renders of our new Boeing 757-200 kit in 1/144 scale are ready! Kit will have two main gear wheel types, two wingtips and two variable engines! V.P. 9
misterblank Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 P&W and RR engines??? Too good to be true! Lobe crease, pinched fuselage between the horizontal stabs and most importantly, accurate nose shape. Looks like we have a winner here! Best regards...Duncan 4
RCI Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 (edited) Both engines, two wheel types and winglet option as well. All you can dream of... i guess this could be the new big cheese in the hood! Edited March 2, 2021 by RCI finger trouble :) 4 1
Team Aer Lingus Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 I gotta get some of these can't wait for the release and if anyone from Zvezda is reading a new Boeing B707 next please thank you for this one Eamonn
PhantomBigStu Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 Good news to see they;'ve not repeated the error with the 767 and included the RB211 as well. Also if a Zvezda rep is watching ignore the above and tool a A330 next
k5054nz Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 Oooooooooh it's looking good! I have mine all planned out... 3
SAT69 Posted March 2, 2021 Posted March 2, 2021 They did their homework and the results look very impressive. There's definitely a market for these, as surely as there's a market for their C-130. Might an all new 727-200 be next? 1

In case some zvezda guy reads it, disregard all above and go for the 727... haha so unlikely, but dreaming is allowed isnt it...

26Decals Posted March 3, 2021 Posted March 3, 2021 As soon as I have the kit in my hands drawing will start 7
janneman36 Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 It does have more options regarding the engines, wingtips/lets and gear but no mentioning of the different door layouts! I hope they will give us that as well.. cheers, Jan

If we're lucky we'll get a -300 series kit in the not too distant future.
IT_Man Posted March 4, 2021 Posted March 4, 2021 Plenty of nice schemes for 757! Would love to see the Icelandair Hekla Aurora included 1

Team Aer Lingus Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 I agree Sinister both would be fantastic a new tool Zvezda 707 & A330 preferably a 200 would be right up there on many wish lists. In the meantime I can't wait to get my hands on this kit & a new tool BAC 111 that's on the way from elsewhere Happy times for civilian modellers Eamonn 1
Eric B. Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Hello Just to know : what about the Revell A330? (besides it's a -300 IIRC) . Just because I had my mind set on the idea that the B757 was poorly served in 1/144th scale (as probably the B727, B707, A300-600 or later versions of the A340 plus some others) and I did not have included the A330 in my list. Anything to know about the Revell kit? Best regards.. Eric B. 1
