My dearest friend would love to have Megatop model. My HKG-SIN and four other flights did not have it. Took SQ16 SIN-ICN with the familiar faces crew, and yup, I got it. I mean the box shows the picture of Megatop. Going through security at ICN, the Herpa box got special treatment. Yeah, it showed as if a knife on the screen. Fortunately, the screener, after three times run through, was convinced it's a real airplane model.
Took YVR-SFO. At YVR, same thing happened. Sharp pen. But she was okay after running through the x-ry again. So, the box is still in the original plastic wrapped.
This morning, at SFO domestic, the screener thought it was a knife. I explained to her that I bought it on board SQ, and still had untampered plastic wrapped. Guess what? She could not figure it out the shape of the object on the screen. Well, she decided to rip off the plastic to look inside the box. After carefully checked, she gave back the model and the box.
So my dearest friend, the Megatop is in FedEx right now. Hope you will get it this Friday!
Cheers!
