Hobby Master has decided to start packaging their 1/200 Airliner Series
models in the same type used for their military models. The box will be
made of a good weight card stock and nicely covered with graphics.
Instead of the clear plastic window you will receive your 1/200 Airliner in a
sturdy box with a flap that can be opened to view the model. The aircraft
will be secured inside a clear plastic shell just like the military aircraft
models. This new packaging will be available starting with HL1005 Varig
L-188, HL2004 Swiss Air DC-4, HL3001 BEA Viscount and HL4001 Pan
Am Boeing 377 Stratocruiser.


POSTED January 26, 2010
I added some pre-production photos for:
HL2005 1/200 QANTAS DC-4
HL4001 1/200 Pan Am Boeing 377
I added some finished product photos for:

There also are some revisions for model delivery dates:
HA2703 1/72 Mitsubishi F-2A and HA1309 1/72 Kosovo A-10 will be included
in the January shipment instead of the February shipment.
HA2505 1/72 F-105 Operation Look Alike will now ship at the end of February
instead of with the January shipment.
HA2307 1/72 Beaufighter Bambi will ship in March instead of February.
I'm leaving the last portion of January 2010 news in case you missed it.
