Hello;
Anyone have any info on the Trumpeter 1/350 Tsesarevich, Russian Battleship (1917) It looks like it comes with all the PE. I have been looking for reviews with no luck.

HI

IMHO the plastic looks good but I've no references to compare shapes/sizes etc.

If the etch is like every other Trump provided etch I've tried to use, it is realllly flimsy. I suspect etch sets and a wooden deck are already in the works.

I've no qualms about their new ship releases as far as buildability goes. They've improved a great deal in the past 10 yrs.

I would like to get the wood deck. I used one on my Varyag and think they are great.
