2 new kits of WW2 German destroyer in 1:350 scale

When will we see a HMS Tribal class destroyer in 1:350 plastic? It is just not right that the most powerful Navy in the last few century not represented. The WEM resin kits are not too expensive. But I just don't like working with resin.

Looking forward to that myself!!

Harshman II

Dragon one is more intensive in detail and more PE. If you want OOB build. Go dragon but it will be more expensive too.

Trumpy less PE and intensive in compare to Dragon but still a good kit and price cheaper too. Its more suitable if you decide to enhance it with Aftermarket stuff/PE.

The FSM Inbox review of the Trumpeter kit said about 400 parts. It is very high part count for any 1/350 scale destroyer kit. Yet it is the "less intensive in detail" one. Wow.

Can't wait to see some in in depth reviews of both kits. Sounds like another new chapter in ship kit history. The Dragon Smart Kits are supposed to use 3-directional slide molds to enhance details and reduce part counts. It would be interesting to see if the Dragon kit has better details and smaller part count at the same time.
