How about some RN, German, US, and IJN 1/700 bridge equipment - range finders, direction finders, pelorus (pelorii?), signal lamps, etc. etc... Too many model manufacturers (Flyhawk being a notable exception) leave a very bare bridge, or poorly detailed equipment.

Thanks for the interest.

PM coming your way.

An early SCB-125 island for USS Yorktown CV-10 as it appeared from 1955-1960 is now available in 1/530 scale for Revell. During 1956, she was embarked with Air Task Group 4.  During 1957, Carrier Air Group 19 (CVW-19) was embarked aboard ship.  From 1958-1960, she carried various anti-submarine warfare squadrons.

This time period presents the modeler with some interesting aircraft possibilities such as FH-1 Phantoms, F2H Banshees, F9F Panthers, A-1 Skyraiders, E1B Tracers, S2F Trackers and SH-3 Seakings, all available from Starfighter Decals.

This model was sized specifically for Airfix and is not likely to fit Trumpeter kits.

Hi Steve, I'm sure I know the answer to this already, but I was looking through your catalog and saw you offer the 'Big 5' cage masts in 1/350, any chance to see it in 1/700? I'm guessing they'd probably be too fine to print properly, but thought it wouldn't hurt to ask. I've tried contacting the other two companies that offered them in 1/700 with no replies so far. I'm looking forward to the parts i ordered sms will definitely be buying more. Thanks

Hi Abram,

Great hearing from you and thanks for the interest!

Regarding 1/700 scale cage masts, I regret to report, no. They are too fragile in that scale for the tech I use or have access to. The best I can do is 1/350 scale.

And thanks for your order! I'll do my best to get you some great models.

Hope all is well with you and yours.

Wow. The detail is incredible.

Any progress on Okie's superstructure?
