Darn you Jim. I'm still trying to figure out how to sneak the Trumpeter USS Lexington past SWMBO. Not to mention where to display that one. Now you tell me about this one, which I've been salivating over for some time. Hmmm... models or marriage? :-) I better go with the marriage for now.

When my daughter moves out in a couple years, and I grab her room, watch out though. Just hope these will still be around then.

These should be hitting stateside in a couple of weeks. A WHOLE MONTH EARLY !!!!!!!!!!!! Rodger i think if you wait a bit, you'll be able to pick one up for around $80 or less on ebay. I got my Lexington for $83 plus $10 shipping and the NC retails for about 15 bucks lower than it. I've seen pictures of the Tom's PE set for the Lex and it's a beaut sells for $32 retail (2 sheets)
