Hi,
Just picked up the 1/72 scale Gato. I love it. It’s big and will be impressive when I display it over my fireplace in a case.
Anyone know what is next coming out of Revell/Revell-Germany for their next big kit? Moebius is coming out with a 39 inch Voyage to the bottom of the Sea Seaview (see link) and I’m hoping to see more subs from Revell. Keeping with the theme, I wouldn’t mind seeing a Skipjack from Revell
If that’s true, that will be a large plastic kit, just over 5 feet long.
A new Fletcher class model is always welcomed, but I wonder why there aren’t many Gearing class models made? That’s the ship my father served on, the USS Hanson. The Gearing class outguns and out-performs the Fletchers any day. It’s be nice to see one come out in 1/350 scale.
What would I like to see…hmmmmm. New molds. It’s time to get away from some of the old molds that have been used for decades. Of course, I would like to see some new period ships in 1/96 or larger scale. At that scale, the rigging is much more intricate. Perhaps a the Rattlesnake, or some of the British, French, or Spanish Frigates. There were plenty to choose from.
Grymm
I suspect EdGrune is pulling our legs, his post was on April 1st was it not.
Nice thought though, a good companion for the Flower Class Corvette.
Ah Hah!
Someone finally caught the Pevell name on the box art ;->
