New from << Aragon Models >> is this classic
liner the SS Normandie in her prewar appearance as the troopship USS Lafayette
with wartime waterline option. We have the exclusive CAD images of this
new kit right here on Model |

The hull is an impressive one piece part molded with mega slide technology (patent pending). If your tired of kits with seemly thousands of tiny parts you will just love the single digit part count in this model. KISS technology will ensure that you don't have to sit at the modeling bench for hours. This kit can be assembled in mere minutes. | ||||

One of the coolest options is the waterline base. The base
is vacuum-formed and has a water texture.
No need to cut the lower hull off, just drop your kit in the hollowed out water base and you have an accurate depiction of the USS Lafayette in 1942 undergoing conversion into a troopship. |

This is only a preview, so I will can't comment on kit quality, but the CAD sure looks good. More info can be found here or check the website for more details. Aragon Models |
