Question UPS airplane models?

I’d like to buy a few airplane models but noticed that the UPSers website (Corporate Express) only offers the small 5-inch airplane models (1:400 scale). They used to sell a few larger size models too (1:100 maybe?) but I don’t see them on the website anymore.

Any suggestions?

In particular I’m looking for the B757, 767 and the 747-400 models. Ideally I'd prefer the 1:130 scale but I'll look at other scales too.

Please post a link if you know a place where I might purchase those airplane models.

Thanks.

I wish I could still hold PacRim trips - I'm sure I could buy them cheaply in Clark...

We have a captain at World that has models made in the PI. I'll see if he does UPS also.

Atlantic-Models, Inc. - Best Quality Custom Scale Airplane Models - Built to Order!

Very High Quality Resin Cast models from almost all commercial carriers in mostly 1/100 scale.

They even have the very hard to find 727-QF in the old paint scheme or new paint

I sent you a PM

I called Corporate Express about something else that I ordered from their website. And there were some things that I saw in a catalogue that were not on the website, but they said they have them.

So just because you did not see it on their website, doesn't mean something is unavailable. Although it would help if you had a catalogue number ... FWIW

Thumbs up

I had the World Captain do a bunch for my dad and I. He does any airline/airplane and military stuff too. He personalizes the base with your name and wings/squadron patch. He'll e-mail you pictures of your wings and the current livery to make sure everything is right on. He even Fed-Ex's the models to your home. I think I paid $65 for a 18" wingspan MD-11 and it looks awesome. Drop me a pm if you want pics or the guys e-mail. I would feel bad posting personal info on an open forum.

I have the catalog in front of me, and I see that they sell models in 1:100 and 1:400 scales. For the 1:100, here are the prices:

757 - $134.95
767 - $174.95
744 - $215.95 The catalog also shows a 1:200 scale for the 744 at $169.95.

I'm not sure why the big ones don't show on the website. I've never been there. Hope this helps!

I assume that it is DM. If so, his work is very nice. I emailed him about the thread.
