Boy, talk about getting mileage out of the new kits. Nice ripoff of the Takeshi Yuki artwork for the box art. I hope they got permission to use it.

Has anybody used WEM 1/350 kit for Kongo class?

Astronomically priced at near 100 pounds on their site (they have a hidden 20% VAT) is that set some cruically different from the competitors?
Flyhawk's rather extensive set is obtainable at about 45 £ if you are lucky.

I have it, haven't used it yet. Mostly applicable to Kongo.

IT can be used with Kirishima or Kongo. Possibly Haruna. John Sekas can chime in.

The WEM set is not a superset, just an enhancement set.
