Great Models is having a big sale, so I thought to check out their 350 scale stuff to see if they had discounted anything I might be interested in. As I scrolled I saw they listed the Massachutsettes as a pre-order ......then......right below it .....flashing NEW ........the Alabama. I punched it up and it said taking pre-orders ...... so it looks like this is going to be an expensive summer as they also had the San Francisco listed

They're also listing the long awaited Dragon USS Buchanan DD as a pre order.

Great Models always seems to be very Johnny on the spot taking pre-orders. How are they on delivering? Are they the first guys on the block with new stuff, or do they just take pre-orders figuring people won't buy elsewhere because they ordered from Great Models?

I pre-ordered the 3 in 1 late Tigr 1. I got it about a week before most folks, though I was in the second batch. The beauty about the pre-order is it comes at a discount. They don't charge until they ship.
