The three 1/400 scale models are all Gemini Jets, all metal inc wings.

The 1/100 Dash8 Q400 Im failry sure are Skymarks models as with the B744 and B744ER 'Wunala Dreaming'

The Connies Im unsure of though.

Thanks Marty,
Any ideas on the A380? I've had a look on the web and no luck finding a 1/250 A380. Plenty of 1/200s...

Tony,
Best off to go to Melb Airport & buy from there. Its were I got all mine
There is a shop just after QF domestic security, & there is one also in between International & Domestic.

The 2 stores at QF are basically the same store! (Same name (but i4got it) think its called Colours of Australia or something similar) same owners)

You will find excactly the same models & sold on QF Intl flights & on the website.

You should see these:
1/250 QF A380 Wooster
1/250 QF 747-400 Wooster
1/250 DC-3 (if your lucky) Wooster
1/250 QFLink Bae 146 (if your lucky) Wooster
1/200 Dash-8 Skymarks
1/200 707 Wooster
1/200 QF A380 Skymarks
1/200 Airbus A380, Airbus C/s Skymarks

Prices range aroung the $25-$50 mark,

If you cannot find the above try the shop opposite the enterance to Customs at INTL, & a store before security at Virgin.

If you have airport ID you may get a discount too.

Good Luck, & tell us how you go.
