News just in of an exciting new release from Commanders Series Models Inc.! A very interesting and exciting new resin conversion set for the Korean War buffs!

This conversion set includes a new island and catwalk parts, photoetch parts for the
radars, weapons including 3" 50 cal. twin mounts, a Nautilus Models wood flight deck appropriate for an SCB-27A conversion, and decals for the conversion.

Also, Commanders is offering appropriate aircraft for this conversion, including F9F Panthers, F2H Banshees, AD-4 Skyraiders, and other support aircraft, as well as decals for each of these aircraft types.

During the month of May 2006, this conversion set is being offered at 25% off retail price, and the aircraft sets are being offered at three sets for the price of two.
Also, upon request, a correct widened hull is being offered, since the conversion set is designed so the modeler doesn't need
to widen the hull to make the conversion.
