Rats!!!

I've said to myself that I would resist the 350th "plague", but Dade, you with this review, are making things harder and harder!
Congrats on a excellent first view review!

Hey Rui, yes, come and join us in big scale. Mwa ha ha!!! I'm supposed to be a 1/700 scale modeler and have mostly 1/700 kits. I just keep building 1/350! But yes, this little kit is an excellent kit for small scale builders -it's only about 7 inches long.

Hi Dade,

Pretty good look at this little guy, I can see that it will have to be added to my stash. Especially since I am a sucker for IJN Destroyers and Escorts.

Thanks for taking the time and the effort to give us a look see.
