Boy, talk about getting mileage out of the new kits. Nice ripoff of the Takeshi Yuki artwork for the box art. I hope they got permission to use it.

I have it, haven't used it yet. Mostly applicable to Kongo.

IT can be used with Kirishima or Kongo. Possibly Haruna. John Sekas can chime in.

The WEM set is not a superset, just an enhancement set.
