Battleships really have "that little something". Aircraft carriers are butt-ugly.  :cool:

And here I thought the 1:48 scale heavy cruiser in the IWM was impressive. That thing is one massive model.

Imagine trying to justify a model like that to your other half:

"It's okay dear, I'll move it to the garden shed as soon as I've finished 4/5 of the hull; the lounge is just dead space anyway, isn't it?"

:;): :D

Awesome -  In that scale it should come with about 120 crewmen!

Agreed. One of my life goals is to visit all the US battleships that still exist and one that's resting at the bottom of a harbor.

Except that it is over 80 feet long and my house is only 50. It does give me an idea for a unique playhouse for my kids though...  :;):  :D

the only Wave Motion Gun i can think of is one off anime series "Space Battleship Yamato" and alot of other manga\anime after that.

i don't really remember how it was ment to work but basicly it was a really big Gun!
