If Dragon's Buchanan kit is a fair example, the Scharnhorst will definitely rank as one of the best large scale ship kits of all time. I hope the cost won't rival the 1:350 Akagi....

WOW!! Thoise photos really make you want this one. I Don't think this one will break the bank. It is Chinese not Japanese and therefore usually cheaper. I would bet no more than $150

$129.95, beware though, some shops are charging considerably more.

Early July was the last time period that was talked about.

I bet end of July will be more in line. Either way, I am looking forward to picking up my copy!
