Here's the official news from Italeri's export sales manager who I met yesterday at the Shanghai Hobby Expo:
Italeri will release their new S-100 in September.
They displayed the first article sample of the hull. What I saw looked
VERY nice with riveting around the torpedo tubes & nicely molded features such as exhaust, intake & discharge ports in the hull, but was told final tooling revision work was being done before production starts this summer.
Here are a few photos to wet your appetite!
