VMA131Marine Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 I think this is the first new ship kit from Academy in quite a while. Interesting that they are going with 1/700 instead of 1/350: https://www.cybermodeler.com/news/academy.shtml Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gavingav1 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 i wish they did it is 350th, their graf spee , warspite and indianapolis are wonderful and very affordable kits , much better on price point than trumpeter ships and somewhat nicer in their parts breakdown imo .

KRK4m Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 With Academy going 1/700 maybe the chances appear at last for a straight-deck Midway-class, so precisely avoided by Hasegawa, Tamiya, Fujimi, Aoshima, Pit-Road, Dragon, Trumpeter, a.s.o.

dfqweofekwpeweiop4 Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 Shame it isn't a late war Enterprise, as Trumpeter's forthcoming kit could well be early war too. The late war one had many changes including a bulged hull. thanks Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greenshirt Posted July 18, 2017 Share Posted July 18, 2017 19 minutes ago, KRK4m said: straight-deck Midway-class I'd like an angled deck in 1/700 as well. Bonus if it comes in multiple boxings of the differing configurations over her career. I'd be in... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
