Both this and the Naiad are on my wish list, but sadly I have yet to find a uk stockist for their kits. A new range of WW2 Royal Navy cruisers and they are not available here?

Very. It would be like a whole new range of M4 Shermans or Nimitz-class carriers being available everywhere but the States. It makes no sense. With luck someone will eventually pick them up. Hannants have Flyhawk listed but none of their kits in stock, so perhaps they're working on it.
