Oops. I completely missed Matt's posting and pics for the new VF Yamato on the previous page.
Well, he's right, it's popular. I hope it leads to more IJN releases.

Excited about a new 1/350 Cowpens but even more that this is the first of a new series in 1/350!

The pictures are giving mixed signals. The "built model" photo is actually a Bogue class, but the individual sprues appear to be of a Casablanca class. We shall see what comes of it.
