73north Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Just to share the good news that the next new Warship model by VERY FIRE of China will be the 1/350 TAIHO IJN Japanese Carrier . This will be the very first time it has been made in injected plastic ( or resin ) in 1/350 scale 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRK4m Posted July 27, 2020 Share Posted July 27, 2020 Some two years ago they have announced the 1/700 USS Midway (or was it Coral Sea?) in straight-deck configuration. And still nothing happens.... Cheers Michael 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Michael I think the US Navy Cruisers ( and the fact they seem to sell like hot-cakes ) have a lot to do with that , frankly , Very Fire are better at letting you know what will come next than Trumpeter of China frankly - I would grade very Fire as the best in the world , right now , I can't wait for the Flyhawk HMS Prince of Wales 1/350 mind !! sadly 1/700 probably has a low priority -and I prefer the easier seen detail in 1/350 scale .

Sadly 1/700 probably has a low priority - and I prefer the easier seen detail in 1/350 scale . I also grade them as the best and my Eyeball Mk.I also finds the 1/350 details better visible. My problem is that the cabinet containing 40 battleships and carriers in 1/700 will be large enough just for 5 similar warships in 1/350 😢 Cheers Michael 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73north Posted August 3, 2020 Author Share Posted August 3, 2020 I would love to know how well VERY FIRE are selling the US Navy cruisers . The Salem class seems damn fine . They also beat JOY YARD by 2 years for a new tool Missouri 1/350 class battleship . And thats a beauty by all accounts . I wonder if the Renown and HMS King George V ships will ever be realeased this decade . I doubt it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
73north Posted May 3, 2021 Author Share Posted May 3, 2021 Just to give the superb news that Very Fire have released the Sprue Shots of the Taiho 1/350 Scale Carrier https://mobile.twitter.com/ISEHYUGA717/status/1388326488286679041 ( link tested and safe ) It is just wonderful - . These pics make the kit seem incredibly detailed, accurate and straightforward its seems to be the best Model I have seen for a while . I urge you to look at the picture of just the 1/350 Model Aircraft Zero ( or Val ? ) Underside - you can see the wheel wells ! kind regards David 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73north Posted May 7, 2021 Author Share Posted May 7, 2021 Agreed . Quick design by Very Fire that took just over a year and a half from being announced . Kit might be available for sale at end of year . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
