That would be amazing! 1/350 Diorama accessories are sadly rather limited.

Love the dock and vehicles BUT and a however - if you want to get yourself noticed and a million thank you's the 1-700 guys are screaming out for 1-700 3-D figures, the major problem is simply the size of these things, I did say BUT - there is a HUGE open market for these figures as they do not exist at the moment. Like to be the very first company to produce them ? Yes please is the answer !

I would buy a 1/350 dry dock without second thought! I've been thinking of scratching it for years.

No sir, don't be confused between 2-D which they are and all 1-700 currant figures and 3-D such as the larger 1-350 figures which for the 1-700 are none, and my good remark, make yourself the first company to produce 3-D 1-700 figures stands, a huge open market and they will sell like hot cakes. Believe me. :thumbs_up_1:

I couldn't agree with you more Al, however, when we finally do see 3D 1/700 figures, I think they will be coming out in resin or styrene. It appears that Five Star, at least at this point, is concentrated on PE, which unfortunately I doubt a 3D figure could be made from.

And a comment for Five Star...The US military vehicles you have displayed are the best looking so far available in 1/700.
Another vacancy in the market exists for this quality vehicle with WWII Japanese and German vehicles, almost nothing now available. These would be a logical next step in your vehicle line. Has this been considered ?
