Hobby link Japan is showing pix of this new release. Said we should be able to start pre orders near the end of the year. This is the hybrid version. I think I'll wait for the pure heavy crusier version (Suzuya in 700)

Anyone hear anything about a 350 Myoko class coming out or the always interesting Tone.

I was surprised to see the Mogami as I wasn't expecting this to be shown until spring. Huh...

As for the Myoko, with those Myoko class-specific pieces included in the 1/350 Chokai kits, it's a dead giveaway. As for when...
