Any opinions about what is the best kit between these two?
I'm not a usual ship modeller, but I'm really thinking on give this one a try...
Thanks for your advice and references

I will throw another one into the mix....as Dragon is also doing a 1/350 LCS USS Independence, so you will have 3 to choose from.
Trumpeter and Dragon will be cheaper by about $20 I believe, if that helps you any in your decision.

Thanks for the head up
Found them at Luckymodels at good price. My main concern is about what model is the most accurate, anyone has seen them?

Bronco is the only one out in 1/350 so far, Trumpeter and Dragon are to follow on at some point, likely both before Xmas.

Dragon's release will be a re-pop of the Bronco.
