I love this whole website, and the models that are produced. I'm creating a series of games, and would love to see more Pre Dreadnought warships. Would love to work with the
Ruso-jap war.

The French navy seems to be lacking, and the Japanese don't have any form of appearce in the Great war section.

Oops forgot S. Korean Pohang class.

While I'm here I would like to support the Sverdlov effort as well as the U.S. early cold war air wing aircraft pack.

This is my first post on the GHQ Forum. I have been a naval enthusiast since 1956. Shortly thereafter, while still a young teenager, I began collecting 1:1200 scale waterline model WWII warships made by Authenticast. Several years later Alnavco took over with their “Superiorâ€￾ brand. Since then GHQ was founded. I've seen some competitors' wares, but GHQ makes the most detailed, best quality 1:2400 waterline models of them all, IMHO. I am switching to the GHQ 1:2400 line as the 1:1200s are too expensive now.

My interests are solely in WWII Micronauts, but there were several oldies left over from WWI that were little altered by the beginning of WWII. My requests for new GHQ models today are from that period:

1. WWII USA destroyer Allen (DD 66) as in 1941
2. WWI UK light cruiser "C" class, Caledon group
3. WWI UK light cruiser "C" class, Ceres group
4. WWI Italy destroyer Sirtori class
5. WWI UK destroyer "S" class, Admiralty type
6. WWI UK light cruiser "D" class without trawler bow
7. WWI UK monitor Erebus class
8. WWI UK "C" class, Capetown group
9. WWI UK destroyer "Modified W" class, Admiralty type
10. WWI Italy flotilla leader Mirabello class
11. WWI UK destroyer "Modified W" class, Thornycroft type
12. WWI Italy destroyer Pilo class
