This is the last one that the molds can offer. For the rest we need new molds for hull.

What were the differences between the 35 and 38 versions?

And will we get earlier versions?

The Pagoda mainly, also the AA platforms where smaller as no 25mm AA guns where present in 1935, only quadruple 13 mm ones.

It's not news, being mentioned in the updated list on P1 of the thread. However, I haven't seen that artwork, which shows the presence of the 'knuckle', which I hope is translated into the actual model. Only thing that seems to be missing is the plating over the sheet anchor location.

At last an RN light cruiser in 1/350 scale.

Regards,

Hugh Williams

The Cybermodeler site now has it as an August release?

Uk or just US?

Am thinking at least a 4-5 week difference between the difference datewise in retail availability for their 1/350 HMS Eskimo kit?

Got mine back in Feb this year.

It's traditionally been the case that the kit hits shelves around two months after they appear on the Trumpeter site's "Day-Month" preview entry. The dedicated page for the kit itself and pictures of the kit parts appear on their site around one month before they hit the shelves.

:doh_1: Got a bit confused with the 2 month rule...why does Trumpeter do it that way?

The 2013-06 (i.e. June) update is posted 2 months early in April and the kits listed in the update are released 2 months after in August! :scratch:
