    Drum Roll Please......
    We were able to buy the entire inventory of a retiring model maker in the Mid-West. He built very excellent quality molds. Mostly power boats, but 4 1:144 scale ships.

    All prices include shipping.

    The absolute hands down best Cargo Ship off all time: US Liberty Ship- $89 with a deck

    The ominous and innovative underwater aircraft carrier: IJN I-400 -$50

    Do you have an example of what the i400 hull out of that mold looks like? hard to get a clear idea of the form from the one shot.

    Here’s some closer pics of the mold details. I just got home and unloaded the truck last night. The powerboat molds take priority from a commercial value standing... unless someone wants to take a shot and pay me for one. That would jump this into the production line. Otherwise I’ll have one out in a couple weeks.

    Nice! I have literally drawn up 3 of those ships in the last 4 months, so lousy timing on my part.
