WOW!!!

Them be some fine models. And they are just a wee bit pricey. The best I could devine was for the USS Arizona 1/350 scale. $1,500.00.

Almost everthing else, you have to call for a price. The old if you have to ask; you can't afford it. But the detail is exquisite. I believe made of wood. Boy I could really go to town. I'm guessing that the USS Lexington and other carriers would go for about $2,500.00 or so. I looked at the Gato/Balao's. At 36" (possibly 1/144 scale) maybe at or under $1,000.00. Still a tempting site to peruse through. I bookmarked the site just in case. I think in the future I'll find a damn good reason to justify a purhcase.
