Terrific review by Tracy White (with an assist from Sean Hert). Pity the kit seem to be a bit of a turd. :(

Echoing the appreciation for Tracy's hard work in reviewing this and offering the list of upgrades as well!

Great review. I hope they get around to issuing it in 1/700. Too big for my shelf in 1/350.

Thanks for posting the frames David - wish I'd had that when doing the review!

You can get a very nice 1/700 Sangamon kit from David Angelo of Loose Canon models.
