Spotted this reboxed set of the Heller 1/400 scale German warships at the weekend. Too big to sneak home ........

Hi David!

I have seen this on my LHS, with the Heller brand - after all this is, as you state, the Heller's small DKM combatants of their early 70's catalog...
I think that the molds show their age - it would be nice to see the same themes with more recent mold technology and details
