THAT is my baby!

I am buying this model (and it it really too expensive...but it is the only one available) next week.

Here's the pics of the kit (Its a resin kit which is why it costs more):

Since I already have a 1/350 scale USS Iwo Jima LHD-7, and a 1/350 scale USS New York LPD-21, adding the LSD Harper's Ferry, LSD-49, will complete my ARG!

I have a Burke DDG, a Tico CG, and two Independence class LCS to round out the whole thing with her escorts!

Also, the USS New Jersey (in her 1980s config) will tag along for the ride!
