Well, as long as you don't start installing small round hatches in the doorways of your digs and ladderways to get from one level to the next, it could be worse.
But we do enjoy watching you work your way through all those underwater dwelling steel critters.

That GATO is HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I wish I had that much room! I'd get that, another Italieri PT-596 and backdate it and I'd get that new Italieri S-100 too. BUT these models are WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY too big!

I agree with Jay. As long as you don't get the urge to turn your house into a sub, you should be fine.

Hehehe, its bad, I tell you - its bad!
Bad on wallet, bad on my modelcabinet (putting tanks and stuff in storage ... ) bad on all other sorts of modelling ... baaaad!
Frank - long time since we have seen anything from your great build ?
Its actually funny, I have a urge to build all availeble 1:72 submarines, I have been building armor and stuff for 15 years, and never felt the urge to do all panther variant, or all the shermans - but with the sub I have to build them all... muahhahah
scary !
And yes, that Gato is way to big for most houses - including mine ....
Cheers/Jan

Two subs? Looks like Lindberg is producing a small flotilla between them!

Oh yes, the "Lindberg brothers" - well I“m very curious to see them hit the market and hear the initial responses to the kits.
I might have to get one, but it will not be before they have been on the market for some time and a decent deal can be made.
Give a little time for the aftermarket folks too
