Most wanted 1/350 kits:
1) Newport class LST (LST-1179)- just a cool-looking class of ships with their bow horns.
2) Any modern amphibious/command ship (e.g., like Mt. Whitney, Blue Ridge)
3) Helicopter Assault Ships (LHA's, I think, like the Guam, Tarawa)
4) Virginia class nuclear powered cruisers
5) CGN Long Beach
Keeping my fingers crossed for 2008...

Other. I am with those who would like to see something (other than a battleship) from the First World War- HMS Lion or other battlecruisers, destroyers and cruisers. Rupe

I'd still like to see an accurate plastic USS Enterprise, CV-6, with the build option for any of the 1942 battles that she participated in.

Hr Ms De Ruyter

I would love to see a 1/350 kit of the Dutch cruiser De Ruyter. Failing that, my first choice for a new plastic 1/350 kit would be HMS Warspite in her WW2 fit. A ship with that service record deserves to be represented by a first class, large scale plastic kit.

From the list, I voted for the Midway but I'd also be delighted with:

1. A Wasp class LHD
2. The Oriskany in her final configuration
3. Any of the IJN carriers at Midway.
4. The Enterprise in her 1945 fit.

Gotta be a CV-6. Preferably post Eastern Solomons when she was holding the line all by herself or post 43 refit.

Choices in 1/350

Post by pajaar »

Hmmm. So many possibilities, so little time. I'd like to see the CVE (preferrably a Casablanca class) to go with my Tamiya Fletcher and Trumpeter DE. That way I can do a Samar diorama. I'd also like to see some more gators, like some of the early LSD's. The old Lindberg kits are getting really...well...old! :smallsmile:

There are so many differences in the SCB125 A/C Essex ships that an entire cottage industry could support the different gun galleries, masts and antennas that separate them.

The differences in the location of the starboard lifts and the shape of all the lifts between ships make for many modeling opportunities.

I would probably buy a dozen copies of a 1:350 SCB125 Essex and the associated modification kits + photoetch, or make my own if they were not available.
If an unfriendly power had attempted to impose on America the mediocre educational performance that exists today, we might well have viewed it as an act of war.

Poll response

From that list I would vote for an other....I'd like to see a British Cruiser in 1/350....HMS Ajax would be great or a county class like Norfolk.

However, Warspite would be a great choice...in 1941 configuration.
