About the 3 submarines, this include the HMS Trafalgar class, HMS Upholder/HMCS Victoria class and Type 214 ?
Thanks in advance.

[Georgi Grigorov]

Yes, those 3, they must be available at the beginning of the next week. Then we have 2 more that we prepare right now, +one in 1/350

Poor design but nice looking.
WW2 era, one of the ... hum lets say "not wining" sides. Actually I work on two such cruisers, different countries but the same side. Both was bad designs.
I want to test something, and then we will start with the nice ships with "HMS" in front (ships with HMAS and HMCS are also good).
But as I say these are only for testing some concepts, for now.

Is it the Kriegsmarine light cruiser Nurnberg (later, Russian Admiral Makarov)?

[Georgi Grigorov]

We work on Karlsruhe, but it�s not what I mean right now. And I will not tell it�s name till we have some progress on it.

Georgi - which is 1/350? I'm trying to find where to buy a 1/350 Victor III!

Any chance you could do a Sierra III or Delta III/IV in 1/350? That would be great.

[Georgi Grigorov]

Well you cab buy Victor directly from, since you are not registered I can't advice you for other place, but for sure Fleetnet have them, Freetimehobby also must have some within two weeks.
As for our future plans: we plan to do all German boat that we already have in 1/700, then will start with some soviet and Russian, but not very big.
Sierra III - there was not such boat, it remain as project. Delta III/IV - definitely not soon, they are very big , and their prototyping will cost too much, I need first to see that the range is running before investing such sums into it.
Regards
Georgi

Great. I will buy the Victor III from Freetime. Aha, meant the Sierra II.

A 1/72 or 1/144 Beluga would be the best thing ever. I would pay alot for that. I have it in 1/350 and it is just too small in that scale! The coolest submarine of all time.

[Guest]

Hi Georgi, do your 1/350 scale kits come with instructions?

[Georgi Grigorov]

1. Sierra II � if the range is running well it will be done, but not one of the first. It�s very big; also the 1/700 model is not one of our best sellers. At first time we will do small submarines, diesels and small nuclear like Skipjack. You can search our 1/700 range; all subs with actual displacement under 5000 t must be done at first place�of course I work on several exceptions:)
2. Beluga? You mean project 1710? First we will do it in 1/350, then when start the 1/144 range it will be there too, but not one of the first , after all the range is dedicated to much smaller subs, like Piranha for example.
3. Most of the models come with instruction, except those that are obviously too simple. Of course some time we may miss to put it in the box

Is the 2 new subs(HMS Churchill and TR-1700) available in the shop Georgi ?

[Georgi Grigorov]

No in the shop, it�s physically impossible to deliver them for such shot time. They are available directly from me for now.
Also keep in mind that most of the shops already place their pre Christmas and NY orders, so I doubt they will order again before January.

Hi Georgi; what are next prototype ? Are include soon a Type 209/1200 previus versi�n ? (such as "ARA Salta" and "ARA San Luis" of Armada Argentina).
Are in your projects a "true" Oscar II class ?( all 1/700, 1/400 or 1/350 kits have a big error: only one dive vertical plane below stern ).
