Having just finished chapter 2 of Robert K. Massie's fantastic Castles of steel , "Goeben Is Your Objective" I'm in awe of Rear Admiral Wilhelm Souchon's exploits throughout the Mediterranean and the Black Sea. I'm wondering if there is a kit of the SMS Goeben in either plastic or resin, 350th or 700th scale? Regardless of quality!

Frank,
Pacific Front Hobbies has a kit that can be built as either the Goeben or Moltke. You can check out their other listings to see what else they might have.

Thanks Jim,

Took a closer look, and NNT sells the model with turned barrels as a high-tech kit, I'll see if I can locate a supplier.
