                        Actually, it is a PitRoad kit. Outside of Japan, it's marketed and sold by Trumpeter.

                        I bought the PitRoad/Trumpeter kit. I haven't built it, so I don't know how it goes together, but I thought the detail was crisper and the molding better than the Dragon kit (which I saw in the box).

                        I went with the Trumpeter model. The detail on the bulkheads is very nice and some thought was put into how the ship would be painted by the modeler to make it easier during assembly.
