Probably not. I think Trumpeter has already tested and got their 1/350 USS Brooklyn kit.
I had no idea that Trumpeter has been testing this kit! Fantastic.

Would Very Fire be considering an Baltimore class heavy cruiser?

I think they got it 1 or 2 years ago, also their 1/350 DKM H-39 kit.
We hope we can do the Baltimore class, if Trumpeter gives us a chance.

I would prefer that you all create the 1/350 Cleveland and Baltimore, that way it would finely get done!

If I can advice you?
You should announce your future kits everywhere you can, so lots of modellers will wait for your model (ignoring Trumpeter kits).
But if you announce something you shoud make it for sure .
I know that never released model should sell better, but there are a lot of subjects like Hood, Repulse, Prinz Eugen, Essex, North Carolina, Arizona (rather poor quality) worth to rerelease.
(It could be Washington instead of North Carolina )
Your quality is mutch better, prices are good but not everybody knows you.
For example: I can't buy your kits in Poland but Trumpeter is in every model shop.

Good luck

Thank you for your suggestion!
We are trying to have more distributors in EU, but now we only have one in German.
We have discussed the new Pennsylvania, NC and SD class, also our new Iowa class which will contains more details but will not increase price.

What is the relationship with Trumpeter?
Its not unusual for companies to work together. Aoshima, Tamiya, and Hasegawa Waterline Series is a good example.

Looking forward to the Cleveland! But I hope you jump on creating the Brooklyn class too! One other I wish you would look into it the Omaha CL class too.

Maybe. But I think the next 1/700 kit will be USS Midway class.

Full hull, 1950s, if finally we will develop it. Now we are focusing our 1/350 USN cruisers.

I�m very much looking forward to the release of the Cleveland class. Does Veryfire plan to release both the early (round bridge) and the later version (square bridge)?

Also Veryfire alluded to the next release occurring by �Black Friday � or Christmas. Does this apply to the Cleveland?

Thanks again
Joe
