I know I can't be the only guy out there who believes there is a serious lack in subjects at this scale.
I know there are a few companies that put out the resin kits, but that is brutal on the wallet.
I have all of the Tamiya and DML 350 scale ships.
Are there any others out there that share this view? And if so, What would be your top 5 wish list kits be?
Since it's my post, I get to go first :-)
USS Nimitz class CVN
USS Arliegh Burke class DDG
USS Wasp class LHD
Kirov class Russian battle cruiser
Kara class Russian cruiser
Here's a couple more. Hey it's my post, I can change the rules if I want too
USS Yorktown (Battle of Midway)
IJN Kongo Battleship

I think if you take that last "0" off in "350" you will find a huge array of models. - just kiddding.
One of these years I may build another ship.
I don't know if this will help but, Trumpeter makes a few in 1/350th:
Italian Heavy Cruiser R.N. Pola
CG-52 USS Bunker Hill
DDG-990 USS Ingersoll
DDG-963 USS Spruance
Kai Feng, Chinese destroyer derived from Udaloy
Battleship U.S.S. Arizona (BB-39 - 1941)
Huainan, Chinese frigate derived from Grisha class

I'm putting together a collection of 1/350th subs and I know what you mean about the expensive resin kits. However, I have found one company that is not too bad on the prices for Blue Water Navy.

If you do a search on their site for 1/350 it does bring up a fairly large listing (three pages if memory serves).
Hope this helps!
