Coming this October a LIMITED release of a photo etch detail set meant for the Max Factory kit of the Shimakaze 'super destroyer'. See Tim Reynaga's announcement of that kit here.
Since the Max Factory is using Hasegawa produced molds for the ship, the PE set (No. 40093) is meant to enhance that specific kit, as opposed to Fujimi's recent entry.

The etching fret measures 255 × 108.5mm. It contains handrails. various antenna, bridge window frame, watertight doors, propeller guards, pulleys, depth charge racks, ventilation vents and more.

Since this is a 'limited' release, getting one may be tricky. HLJ already has an order stop for the product unless Hasegawa produces more for additional orders to be taken and the Hasegawa site itself is not yet taking orders. Check with you preferred vendor if they plan on getting this set. The suggested price is ¥3,600 ($30.00 USD).
