The one in your picture, because its rare, I would say, if you were to find one you could be looking a £50-70 price tag.
In which case – they can keep it! 🙂
I make plastic kits, only of military stuff though – I’ll post some pics here in this thread if you want to see any of them?

Geminijets are around £13-100 depending on what you are after.
F100-A320 size = £13-17 (Including 737 etc)
B757-A340 size = £21-28 (Including 747 and A330)
Specials = £50-100, but you’ll be lucky to lay your hands on a special one.
I used to hand make models, but im not that good at it. 🙁

Nice little models, shame this ones sold out – I would have had one if it weren’t…

How much are they anyway?
Anyone here make plastic kits?
By: A330Crazy - 26th August 2003 at 13:58
Yeah Rens right pics are from the Geminijets website, but hes also right in saying that they can be bought from Various outlets.
The shop on the LHR viewing gallery sold this stuff, but in bulk… it was suppoed to be a complete scale model, for the Geminijets series, of LHR. £150 the lot. Pricey it seems, but there was alot in the package… Just imagine having a mini LHR laid out in your house! 😀
I think the only other place that sells it, in London anyway, Is Hamleys Toy shop on Oxford street.

Those pics are from the Gemini Jets website. But I think you can buy your own airport backings and accessories from various model vendors.

love the Iraqi one!:)
By: A330Crazy - 27th July 2003 at 20:14
Kev.
The A340 and the 747 are a 1:400 scale. And the frontier one is 1:200 Which is bigger.
I was gonna take it back and get a 1:400 scale model of the AF concorde. Everywhere on the net has sold out of these, yet my local modelzone has just the one, so im gonna see if I can get it tomorrow.
By: Ren Frew - 27th July 2003 at 18:38
Still a great lookin beast, can’t wait to see a real one.
By: Ren Frew - 27th July 2003 at 13:33
One of the wheel bogies came off my A340-600 model, a bit of superglue fixed it fine but they do seem a little flimsier than usual on this model.
By: Hand87_5 - 27th July 2003 at 13:02
Right Kev , IMHO Frontier has the most impressive livery.
.
BTW , I guess they received their first A318
By: kev35 - 27th July 2003 at 12:55
Andy.
Very nice. What scale are they? And why swap the Frontier A319? It’s a cracking model in a fantastic livery.
Regards,

And Thirdly, the one I am most proud of finding… Because so far every model site I have seen on the net is sold out of it, Is this baby!!!!
By: A330Crazy - 27th July 2003 at 12:40
Secondly I got a StarJets model of a Frontier A319 — Which I have had second thoughts about, so Im taking it back to swap it.
