Thanks for this. The main deck splits are disappointing, but the rest looks great.

Thank You for info Jim...

So we have to wait for ship from China, or in Europe container via trans-siberian railroad

Some people who ordered thiers from Japan have received the kits.

I would guess sometime in mid November before they get here to the states. Possibly about the same to Europe.

I just got an update from Stevens, and the Arizona has arrived in the US. Not sure about the small upgrade set with the 5" barrels and more PE....but the ship has come in...................pun intended...

I just found this info on GreatModels web page...

" Please note that some very hot pre-orders are at our doors! Trumpeter 1/200 USS Arizona "Limited Edition" will arrive at GreatModels on Thursday. 90% of this shipment is pre-sold. This has been the largest pre-sell in our 13-years history!! The accessory set for this kit will come in 2 weeks."

I bet that next 1:200 Trumpeter ship will be Pensylvania 1944
