A 1/200th Arizona would be great, if only it doesn't cost a small fortune. Let's hope that Trumpeter will keep the price down and maybe come out with more battleships in the future.

The word from the recent hobby shows has been that they will indeed release a 1/200 Arizona.   No word yet, that I've seen, on the contents or quality of the kit.

Trumpeter 1/200 Arizona in our future?

I came across some highly interesting news while browsing www.freetimehobbies.com.  It seems that Trumpeter is expected to release a larger scale USS Arizona sometime in the future.  It would appear this is not the premature news of the maybe--might do--could be type, as the photo shows an item number (kit number for Trump) on the top of a box.

If this comes to pass let's hope the thing is of decent quality, accuracy, etc., because it will probably be spendy, but finally we may have a nice large scale for us old timers with weak eyes and shaky hands to work with.    

If this is a decent kit with real potential, I'll make room for it.
