This one is especially sweet as it shows Trumpeter is continuing pushing the 350 scale market out further and further.  This is not one of the mainstay type warships either.  What I especailly like is that 2 other Japanese manufactures have entered the fray so far with releases of some Capital Japanese warships, and a 3rd is planning on another entry.  Maybe with the success that is going on in this field, we'll see some other interesting kits pop out in the next few years.  700 scalers are also reaping benfits in this rising interest in ships as well.
