It's seasonal, but it won't be finished this Christmas, and besides not sure I would like the scull and crossbows wearing a Santa Hat, looks spooky but will decide later, how about voting??
Anyway, have had this one in my stash for a couple of years now, so have decided to bite the bullet. Reason for the delay?, well although it's a 1:72 scale there are 211 pieces in the box, should be interesting.

Kit comes in three plastic bags.
[ATTACH]54655.vB[/ATTACH]
One bag contains 5 plastic sprues, and another bag contains 6 plastic sprues + one photo etch part.
[ATTACH]54656.vB[/ATTACH][ATTACH]54657.vB[/ATTACH]
The last plastic bag contains the clear parts; decals and decal/paint instructions. There is also a 16 page instruction book.
[ATTACH]54658.vB[/ATTACH] There must have been one small piece of the kit which fell off at the factory, and was spotted by their Q.A. dept, as they have included it in its own bag which you can see at the left of this last photo.
Two decal options are provided for the Aircraft Carriers 'George Washington', and the 'Dwight D Eisenhower', I will be doing the latter, as I remember this great man when he was President visiting Aberdeen in 1959 on his way to visit our Queen at Balmoral Castle, I was at school, and remember us all lining the road to seen him pass.
Cheers Derek
p.s. how's this for a photo of pure raw power.
