Happy to see new incoming model of u-boot in big scale.
I just don't like that ugly welds on turret. Hopefully the rest of U-XXIII will look better

Great news for us...the lovers of  U boats in a big scale...any one know the date of realese???


Cheers!

Great news indeed! Yep, i agree, those welds are pretty ugly. Am sure modellers all around the world will spend some time correcting them! A very promising release
Cheers!

there are really only two questions that need to be asked...


1) when can i buy it.
2) how much will it cost.

Hi all

On the following site a release date of mid March is indicated.

Won't be too long now...
Although this scale is too big for me. Besides, I already have the SN 1/72 kit lying around...

Hobby Link Japan also has it in their catalog, available for pre-order, expected arrival in march, priced about the same as the special navy type II:
