This review is from: United Airlines 777 airplane toy plane, RT6266 (Toy)
My 3 year old likes to have this plane in his hand. It is a metal plane about 6″ long (they should give the dimensions in the description). The level of detail and heft is good.
The wheels are unrealistic, which is the only obvious flaw that I could see. They aren’t landing gear and “large” tires but instead just small wheels just under the belly of the plane attached with a piece of plastic. That is just as well since the realistic wheels would have broken off quickly. Perhaps it would have been better just to leave them off.
The wings get thin towards the tip so they are very flexible there. They haven’t broken yet but that could easily happen.
Overall a nice airplane with a good level of accuracy and detail for the price.

I just received this diecast plane today, and am very pleased with it so far. Unlike most Daron Worldwide “Realtoy” planes, this one has all details painted on instead of the really cheap stickers they usually use. Also, the item I received, while still a Unnited 777, did not come in the old 2004 livery pictured, but instead in the brand new 2011 livery, with a gray bottom, larger lettering, and no “U” logo. While I slightly prefer the older look, I am somewhat impressed that the toy manufacturer is so current.
The “landing gear” are still clunky, oversized toy wheels, but I expected as much, and I always chop them off anyway. Also, just like all the others, only the top of the fuselage and vertical stabilizer are metal, with the rest (bottom, wings, engines, elevators) in plastic.

I have been purchasing several of these die cast airplanes in recent weeks, but I am particularly pleased with this one because it doesn’t have any stickers on the body. The letters, logo, and even the design on the vertical stabilizer are actually painted. Very pleased.
