Hello All,
I recieved an e-mail from a source that both dragon and Trunper have been working on a series of Battlecruisers used during the battle of Jutland and a new Design of the HMS Hood in 3 types a 1920's, a 1930's and the final verson of may 1941.
There is also talk of a new line of the Queen Elizabeth Class of all 4 ships with parts to show either WW1 inter war years or WW2.
I am hoping that some of this is true.
Cheers,
Bruce

Which scale? I would presume 1/700th, would love the Jutland Battlecruisers in 1/350th in plastic, both British and German.

Thanks Bruce, thought that would be the case, at least there is hope.
agree Russell, there was rumour about a WW2 Ark Royal last year, but nothing appear to have come of it.
Would be happy with an RN CVE as a start.

I think i could go for some BC in 700. Was lloking to see if anything got announced at the Neuremburg show . couldn't find any for ships. Got several interesting tanks coming though. I am still praying thta Trumpy will boost the Maryland and Baltimore to 350 scale
