A follow-on to this year's Buchanan kit with new tooling...sounds like this is a successful release for Dragon!

Will this mean Dragon (or others) will turn to other pre-war US destroyer classes in 1:350 plastic, or will this be a flash in the pan??????

(At least Tamiya hasn't rushed out their version of a Buchanan/Laffey! )
