 ...a KV-8?!? Surely not the multi-gun casement varient of the KV...( Which would be so cool. )

EDIT: Heavy sigh. Its the flamethrower version of the regular KV. I was mis-remembering. Still, if the
money comes up for the Ju-87A, the scale-o-rama potential of a huuuge single engine attack plane
has some appeal...

Some interesting things there, but what motivated them to produce a 1/200 OS2U?  I wouldn't mind a decent kit of one in 1/72, but 1/200?

They did the USS Arizona in 1/200th recently so it may be for that. Not being a Naval builder did the Arizona carry any floatplanes?

Still awaiting the Ship news as Modelshipwights appear to be a bit behind the other kitmaker elements. Wonder if Trumpeter will do a British Cruiser this time as they have done US & German ones, a County or Town class or even Colony class would be greatly appreciated.

hmm, 1/72 looks a poor effort.

No ... if they would finally release a new-tool Su-27 up to their latest quality (including the scaled-down corrections from Zactoman) ... and a Be-6 and a MiG-19, then I will be a very happy man.

I thought that love would last forever; I was wrong.

The stars are not wanted now; put out every one:
Pack up the moon and dismantle the sun;
Pour away the ocean and sweep up the woods:
For nothing now can ever come to any good.

Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.

Well the ship catalogue section is on Modelshipwrights. - Its quite underwelming.

Nothing really new, the Aircraft from the 1/350 Wasp should be avialable seperately.

In 1/700 the Italian Battlership Roma and its catapult aircraft are listed but this was announced at the US nats anyway, and they are doing Detroit as a reboxing of their forthcoming AOE1 Supply class USN Replen ship due out in Feb and thats about it !!!!!!!!!!!.

(Hopefully Cyberhobby will come to the rescue and carry on with their Modern Sea Power series that has been so good this year, they already have the Missile Cruiser Albany lined up, so hopefully more US missile cruisers and more modern Destoyers & Frigates)

I'm excited about the Roma though.  It'll allow me to continue to hack up BBs in my attempt to give everyone a modern platform.  ;)

Well it has potential, either post war MN use, or as war proze to the Soviets or possibly France.

But its more the fact we only see the one and a second boxing of the Supply  for the rest of the range.

Let's expand the class some and add two more to the Lottorio class, and only have the Roma sunk, with the others going to Allied nations, then a couple repatriated to Italy in the Cold War.  Yeah, buying more than one  ;D

Also, I might actually build the Detroit as is.  Call it a home town thing.  Get a few more two chop up and whif.
