Trumpeter has released limited number of the 1/350 CV-6 kits via their official Tmall store. Some has already received it in China - looks like reused Yorktown hull. Also interestingly it's cheaper than Yorktown.

Mirage Hobby have produced a new version of their 1/350th WW1 Ex-German Polish Torpedo Boat ;

ORP ?L?ZAK POLISH TORPEDO BOAT (ex A59)
ORP ?L?ZAK POLSKI TORPEDOWIEC (ex A59)

scale: 1/350 no. cat. 350509

[ENG] After the end of World War I, ship went to a berth in the British base in Rosyth where she was disarmed. With the division of the ships, by the decision of the Council of Ambassadors, on December 8, 1919, torpedobat A59 - along with five other torpedoboats - was granted to Poland.

The CVE is unlikely to come out any time soon. What's been circulating are the ones bundled with magazines about 1-2 years ago. But there's no plans to release the kit by S-model, despite the obvious interest...

I have this kit - it has some nice features but is very underscale - about 1/760 in length and beam.

Buy them from LCP. I have a sample of the supposed S models kit and have done a review - send me a PM and I will send you my review with pictures.

Very happy ...Shimikaze is one of my favorites IJN Destroyers,looks a bit heavy on general detail,but the PVC figure is so cool,just placed my order in HLJ,for sure my wife will be very upset,thinking now I will go for those supersexies PVC figures, man those Japanese guys just love fanservice

And now.......................................Fujimi's 1/350 version! http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10342953

Looks to be full hull or (gasp) waterline. '44 version, not '43. The degree of detailing is not clear, though.

OMG, which to choose?

The links for this site never work for me, on PC or smartphone. So I assume this is another kit of Shimakaze from Fujimi now? I did not find anything on their site though.

Edit:
Found news about the Fujimi Shimakaze, including slideshow on the manufacturer's main site.
Supplying some working links for reference:

Incidentally, the Zvezda Marat is available in the United States.

I am almost certain I read someone mention that before but thought I would remark that fact.
