Good detailed review of what looks to be an exciting addition to the Yamato 1/350 detail-up market. The quality looks outstanding... and 27 sheets! Thanks Julian! Good photo's too!

I find it interesting that the retail price was not mentioned, or did I miss something? I consider that to be vital information to any review.

Correct on both counts Rusty,
yes, it is essential information and yes, you did miss it
170 Euro's via European retailers.
cheers,
Julian

Jeremy:

If you aren't going to use it, I will certainly be happy to take it off your hands........lol

As usual Lion Roar includes even the kitchen sink in their PE sets,,,but$200 for a PE set streches my budgetpast the breaking point

I'm glad you're interested in it Steve! However it's not my call, Julian is the holder of this set so you'll have to talk to him about it.

Sorry gentlemen,
This set will be incorporated in my Tamiya Yamato. Too good a set to let escape,
