I received my copy on Saturday. The depth charges and the individual mooring bits are turned brass. They're tiny; I can't even make out the mooring bits without a magnifying glass.

It's a beautiful kit.

More tiny insane detail parts. That anchor crane on the bow looks like it could actually work! :wave_1:

Probably turned-brass - the cylinders in the third row of the turned-brass parts illustration.

Are those actually individual depth charges? I hope they're not PE and you have to roll and fold them! :wave_1:

Got mine the other day, lovely detail, but oh so tiny.
I wasn't aware she carried a shielded No 1 gun in 1941

Looking forward to HMS Niad.

I got two of these in the mail today and I gotta say: one of the most lovely, detailed, complete 1:700 destroyer kits I've ever seen. Early contender for kit of the year as far as I'm concerned. It didn't surprise me however: their Derfflinger was also top of the line.
