Re: HMS Naiad Light Cruiser
Where is this available for purchase in the USA? I checked Freetime Hobbies and couldn't find it available or for pre-order on their pre-order site.
Any other US retailers who will be carrying this kit?

I have now received my batch of these from Hong Kong, and it is a remarkable little model - the photos hardly do it justice.
If you get the chance to look inside the box, take it - the detail is fascinating.
I am hoping that Flyhawk will do "the Toothless Terror" and the straight funnelled sub-class.

Re: HMS Naiad Light Cruiser
Dear flyhawkmodel,
Why didn't you put on PE list the 8-pompoms & 4-rd pompoms like you did in your set for "Hood"? Do you plan to issue some special edition of "Naiad" with more aftermarket?

Re: HMS Naiad Light Cruiser
Wow, that looks nice. I'm mostly doing 1/350 these days, but when I get back to the smaller models, this one looks just too good to pass up!

Re: HMS Naiad Light Cruiser
Got mine today and all I can say is, following on Derfflinger and Luetzow, Flyhawk has taken I-M plastic kits to a whole new level....
I'm almost scared to take the sprues out of the plastic!!

Re: HMS Naiad Light Cruiser
Haven't seen any mention this feature of the kit (its not in the review in this site) - if it has been, forgive me, but....
All those small sprues - GB01 - 14 - are slotted to stack perfectly one atop the other - a great way to keep them organized and accessible on the work bench! Awesome!!
