Ahoy Shipmates!!!

Our friends at Mirage Hobby in Poland have sent along word of a new kit in their ever growing line of naval subjects, the 1/350 HMS Anchusa Flower Class Corvett.

Thanks!

This is good news, I for sure will pick up one of these.

Note that I have seen that Mirage will also release the HMS Zinnia K98

Excellent! I've been waiting for these for years ... they were advertised on the flush deck destroyer series some time ago. Hope the Canadian Flowers follow in short order.

Mirage was never a winner with their armor kits - are they any better with ships? How do they compare with Trumpeter, for instance?

Great to see a Flower in 1/350th at last, and in plastic, and an early long Fo'c'sle from the look of it. Lets hope this is the first of a bunch.

Biggles2, I agree some of their kits are not exactly state of the art, but their 1/400th stuff, submarines & destroyers are buildable, and they are improving.

I am looking forward to this, I see an awful lot of potential in this kit, and will be buying more than one, I am sure the aftermarket boys can prrovide the needful.

I think it will all hinge on the cost. They are only small ships and hopefully will be affordable. I still have my 1/72 one to build.

I'm lazy! I'd rather pay more for a good kit than pay less for a real dog that requires a lot of work. But I like corvettes and this might be a cheaper alternative to the more expensive resin kits.

Mirage doesn't update their site very often. I was just there looking for this corvette and they don't mention it anywhere. As an aside, I was also at WEM and they are announcing the imminent release of a PE set for aforementioned model. Looks like the PE will be available before the model.
