Does the price include delivery?

I've just done the math on that model.
Okay, a Nimtz class carrier is app. 335 meters long and 80 meters wide. This would mean that that model is almost 14 meters long by 3,5 meters wide. Hmm... That would just about fit in my backyard!!
My only complain to Italeri is, if they can make a ship that big, why are the planes so dull and un-detailed!!!Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]Big Smile [:D]

I assume 1/720th, all of Italeri's ships are in this scale, so I would assume this one is too.
BTW, is this a new edition of the Roosevelt? Italeri already had a model of this carrioer in her inventory, but with box number No. 5531....

Yesterday, my LHS-owner gave me her new Italery catalogue for 2005, when browsing through it, I found this and knew I just had to share it with you guys.
Now I don't know if it's an honest mistake, or some inside joke at Italery, but I thought it was fun anyway...



For those who are not really awake yet ; the joke is in the scale...
