Combrig has a 1/700 Lusitania on the list - as resin kit.

I received my HTMS Thonbury by Snowman yesterday and it's a real jewel of a kit. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Pre-Order-Sn ... .l4275.c10
However, it will prove to be a test of my patience, and eyesight! It has the tiniest PE parts I've worked with, and all my models are 1/700!

.

Hobby Link Japan are advertising this as a forthcoming kit ;

https://www.hlj.com/1-700-scale-german- ... bsdbst7011

Looks good, but too small - I'd get it in 1/350th.

.

Waaaaaay too expensive!! I would settle for the Pit Road one, and detail it. And how much would you expect a 1/350 version? $250 - $300??
Although I don't think I would order this one: https://canada.desertcart.com/products/ ... -model-kit I don't know whether to laugh or cry at that price!

Does anyone know about this reported imminent release by Dodo Models of a resin 1/700 Israeli Saar V class corvette INS Eilat?

Certainly looks great!

Thanks!

Hannants has the AJM Empire Mac Alpine, Empire Mac Kendrick, HMS Ben-My-Chree, and HMS Pegasus up for pre-order. Not affiliated with them just a satisfied customer.

Thanks for the tip; looking forward to HMS Ben-My-Chree and HMS Pagasus.

I think HMS Pegasus will be quite a while as AJM has several listed before in including the MAC carriers a few more C class cruiser, a German vessel and a couple of different versions of HMS Argus in WWI and WWII. Still I look forward to all of them.

I've also seen CAD's of an Argus they are said to be working on. All are very welcome. Now if they would produce Furious, Glorious, Courageous, and Eagle

New by Oceanmoon in 1/700:

Chinese cruiser Ta Tong (ex Chien An)

Furious, Glorious, Courageous, and Eagle get my vote for all four .
