Ok, now THAT'S big. Even my poor eyes and fat fingers should be able to handle that. Of course if I tried to get this past SWMBO I'd probably have two black eyes and 10 broken fingers.

That is one BBIIGG kit !!!. I have also seen a Yamato/Musashi in the same scale for sale. I wonder if this is going to be the next big trend (pun intended) in ship kits. 20 or so years ago the 350 scale was breached by Tamiya with their limited series of kits.
