1/700 HMCS Warrior? We are going to 'crowdfund' this variant like we did with CVA-01. We would need at least 300 units preordered to make the extra tooling, new box art, etc. for this kit. DIRECT ONLY so the price can remain the same ($64.95). Let us know if you are interested!

HMCS Haida (G63)

Haida's concept/ design (final or not) was done way before Athabaskan's but the design kept changing. A lot of the design is referenced from photos I took when I visited the museum ship a few years ago.
