Both of the auxiliary ships are very appealing. I do not recall if Ark Royal is a reissue or a new model?

From what research I did, Aoshima had a 1941 packaging but I can't tell from what images I've seen so far if there's any molding differences between that kit and this one. If there were I would have thought Aoshima would have touted that but I have not seen that yet.
This is from Hobby Search of the 1941 kit.
