mtdoramike Posted May 12, 2022 Share #2 Posted May 12, 2022 I suggest you post a picture of the actual Merit Hornet kit itself. mtaylor and Canute 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ir3 Posted May 14, 2022 Author Share #3 Posted May 14, 2022 I need to part with this kit and the accessories so if interest, make a reasonable offer. I no longer have the eyes and hands for work this intricate. mtaylor and Canute 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtdoramike Posted May 14, 2022 Share #4 Posted May 14, 2022 Someone needs to grab this kit, it's pretty much complete with all the detail packaging as well as all the running hardware from motors to speed controllers. I would have been tempted had I not just picked up a Trumpeter USS Missouri. Canute and mtaylor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ir3 Posted July 24, 2022 Author Share #8 Posted July 24, 2022 With no interest at all, I will be donating the kit to my local Ship Modeling club. If it's a kit you would like to build, let me know in the next week or two, then it will be gone. Matt H and mtaylor 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ccoyle Posted July 25, 2022 Share #9 Posted July 25, 2022 Have you tried listing it at any of the forums more dedicated to steel navy subjects? It's a shame it's not getting any traction here. Way, way beyond my abilities and budget, though. mtaylor 1 Chris Coyle Greer, South Carolina When you have to shoot, shoot.

Matt H Posted July 25, 2022 Share #10 Posted July 25, 2022 Good luck to you. It looks like it would be a great build. My son is into history and WW2, he'd enjoy seeing this when it's completed. I don't have the funds for it myself, but I hope you find a buyer soon, good luck. mtaylor 1 Matt Completed Builds: Viking Drakkar - Amati - Scale 1:50 18th Century Longboat - Model Shipways - Scale 1:48 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mtdoramike Posted July 26, 2022 Share #11 Posted July 26, 2022 I would have bought this if I didn't already have a Trumpeter 1/200 USS Missouri waiting it's turn. mtaylor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
