 New Section for Ship Models?
I was just over on the Pacific Front Hobbies web site and they list a METAL Neptun of Germany USS Porter DD-360 in 1/700 scale! Now Neptun makes really (no joke) nice 1/1250 metal waterline ships. If the actual 1/700 scale model is as good as the photo's show, then I will finally have access to diecast ships that would look good in my display case next to all the plastic ones. I'm excited. I hope the Porter is not a "one off" and that Neptun gets a good sales response so they make more types. It's $ 85.00 USD which is reasonable for a detailed diecast ship with all the tons of "fiddley bites" But, if the dollar keeps falling these my go out of my price range on later models. |
