Mini craft Ticonderoga class 1/700

I was thinking of picking up this model and doing it for my uncle, he served on the Antietam during the gulf war.

 

My question is, is this a quality model or am I going to be doing a lot of filling and fitting. I am just getting back into modeling and am not familiar with this company.

The Minicraft kit has fit issues with the superstructure.  The Dragon kit is better.  If your 1/350 is not too big, the Trumpeter kit is good.

Overall the Minicraft kit isn't bad, its just that that there are seams that need to be filed and filled on the superstructure, and be sure to test fit fit.
