Just learned that Revell Germany plans to release a new Flower Class Corvette in early 2018.

HMS Buttercup K 193 in 1:144 scale.

The new release is configured as a mine sweeper with both forward(A frame) and aft equipment.

No pictures available as of yet.

Cheers,
Joe

Nice,

Would have preferred a short fo'c's'le, but I will take the minesweeper.

Cheers

Hi Simon,

Yes I agree with you on that...maybe a future release...who knows.

Anyways, lots of modeling for 2018!

Best wishes,
Joe
