777 222er Appraisal

GeminiJets United Airlines Boeing 777-222(ER) 1:400 Scale Diecast Model (N799UA)

This is a precision-engineered 1:400 scale diecast metal airplane model manufactured by GeminiJets, representing a United Airlines Boeing 777-222(ER) with the specific tail registration N799UA. The model is housed in its original blue and white flip-top retail packaging, which features comprehensive historical data and technical specifications of the actual aircraft. The aircraft itself features a classic gray and dark blue 'Battleship' livery, synonymous with United Airlines' brand in the late 1990s. Notable physical features include two detailed Pratt & Whitney PW 4090 engines, realistic metal landing gear, and high-fidelity pad-printed graphics for windows and door outlines. The packaging identifies the aircraft’s construction number as 26926 and its delivery date of May 8, 1998. The model appears to be in excellent, 'near-mint' collectable condition, still secured within its clear plastic vacuum-formed insert and protected by original foam wrapping across the fuselage. The box displays sharp corners and vibrant colors with minimal shelf wear, suggesting it has been well-preserved. This piece is a 'highly collectible limited edition' item, valued for its accuracy to the real-world vessel, including the specific line number 139 and detailed historical context printed inside the lid.
