From the pictures it looks like it is a shelfable thing if not a perfect model, but I would just like to hear someone's take who has actually received one.
I just got notice that mine has shipped.

Once I get it, I'll post some shots.

Holy hell, I want one.

Hope there's one I can find on sale in September when I'd have some money for this baby :p

I got mine a couple of days ago. Eight little boxes all with a different U-boat section. This weekend I'll do the assembly and take some detailed shots.

OK, I know I'm resurrecting a zombie thread...

Does anyone have any thoughts on the completed build? Satisfactory?

The Targa models are available on eBay now for $30-$40, excluding shipping, and it looks like Targa will release a U-96 version later this year (at least, according to this HobbyLink Japan page: http://www.hlj.com/product/TAR96041).

Just curious if anyone has any follow-up thoughts. Thanks!
