Hi Pappy,
I got it and I can very much recommend it. The ship is metal and only some small parts are plastic. I you have too much $ go for FMs USS Yorktown instead. Off the hook!

Yeah, the Yorktown looks awesome... but $1250.... I don't think so. Thanks for the feedback on the Missouri -- I like the historical signficance of this battlewagon. Don't know if I'll ever spring for it, but a few have gone for reasonable amounts on ebay lately.
