Has anyone heard the rumor of a 1/35th Scale Type VII by Trumpeter?
They say..maybe...November/December release date?

A 1/35th Type VII???

Wowzers! What sort of length would that pull in? And I guess more importantly... what sort of price?

Ahoy all,

Wow ! ......looks like I better start looking for a bigger bathtub! :-)

Just some quick math......that would measure up at a little over 6 feet!

Now a Type IX or a Type XXI in 1:72 scale would make a little more sense

Have a nice day and happy modeling,

Joe

I can just imagine the look on my wifes face if I brought home a 6 foot long model box, know what I mean?

There's nothing on schedule this year at Trumpeter for this one, just a wild rumor at this point, mates...
Cheers,
