I got news from Trumpeter/ Hobby Boss page of the upcoming release of the new Chinese aircraft carrier CV 17 aka "Shan Dong" in 1/700 scale. No release date given or if it's waterline only or full-hull option. Given their recent releases I'm assuming it's waterline only.

You can tell that Flyhawk is not a Japanese company, as it doesn't include the dive bombers which destroyed her.

:big_grin:

Your assessment is not completely correct. None japanese Tirpitz has bombers.

By the way, would be interesting a Flyhawk Tirpitz with Lancaster and Tallboy bomb.

The facebook page says that this kit will be issued at 1/700 FIRST.
Meaning for me; 1/350 second ! I wait for it :wave_1:

HMS Exeter was given the same announcement at the end of June and has only just started getting to UK so perhaps a 5 month wait for Cornwall?

Hmmmmm. I wonder how difficult it will be to convert to a HMAS Australia and/or HMAS Canberra?

I think Kent will be much easier so I hope this second kit is released soon. The hanger really messes up the aft superstructure but it does make a Suffolk easier as long as you have a Dremel to cut down the quarterdeck. Just having a County will be great after all these years and being able to convert one to our flagship would be very satisfying indeed. We will just have to see how the Cornwall kit looks when it released to see the conversation possibilities. Here’s hoping

At least the Bonus version of the kit contains Blackburn Skua ;) :D

Both versions of Koenigsberg are now up for pre-order at Hobby Search too. If you want to pay 50(or 100) bucks for a light cruiser in 1/700. Hobby Easy prices are rather better IMO.

My experience is that prices will also be rather better from eBay sellers in China. Even more so if you can wait a while :heh:
