Oh great, even MORE weirdo support ships to add to my fleet of bench warmers! I'm really glad to see these unsung vessels get the high end treatment!

Great to see these ships re-issued - clearly a sign that the 'also rans' are on the up. I'll post a few photos of my Sagara Maru (which is currently 'doing the shows' in the UK) once I've sorted out the photo upload process.
