Your kit opening reviews are so good. Many reviewers spend 1/2 the time showing them talking and only a few minutes showing the kit sprues.

[@PontiacBanker]

Glad I got to visit Andy’s Hobby HHQ while I was in Phoenix last week. Too bad it was on a Thursday and I missed you Andy. At least I was able to buy a few kits to bring back to Wisconsin with me! I managed to get one of the kits from that huge collection afterall, LOL!

[@zulerodoeht329]

WOW WOW WOW !! One of the last ships I built was the 1/720 Revell Massachusetts (from the 70s), this is leaps and bounds above the old kits.

[@pastorrich7436]

Happy to offer the 80th thumbs up for your hobby enterprise!

[@VulcanDriver1]

Hopefully it will be in the UK soon. Nice to compare it with my ww2 1/700 battleships

[@daspanzer135]

Magic factory is making some very exciting new kits! I wanna get the polaris atv set

[@martinbarr9402]

That's a nice size. Some of these new kits are getting ridiculously huge.

[@joeshmoe9978]

Good luck with your continuing success Andy! 🍀

[@Based_Lord_Humongous]

Not sure if it's from the camera zoom, but those look like aome thick gates on some really small yet chunky parts .... Ill wait for reviews and builds ro come out.

[@davesplasticmodelreviewsan8033]

Waiting to see some feedback on this company’s kits assembly . Seems like a nice kit but I want to see how it builds.

[@gruntzone3605]

You sound better! Glad to hear you in better health.

[@Quaralane]

What have I gotten myself into? Thanks for showing this. Nice to know what's ahead of me

[@stephenwinchell9348]

Fantastic video!

[@stevecausey545]

Yup E2 Hawkeye...wow .1/700 has come light-years.. Remember the old sky wave kits? My cats hated them...lol

[@F4FWildcat]

My son is a plank owner on the Ford. I have one on pre-order.

[@Hey_MikeZeroEcho22P]

You SHOULD Like This one!!!! Another 'Magic Factory' product.... a VERY Fine model!!! NOTE: I have done a review of this as well, but I want to mention, "BIG TIME" that there are these little spurs on the Flight Deck (FD), they are actually chutes for unexploded ordinance. So DON'T Cut those little chutes OFF!!

[@perrylamb6286]

This will be amazing. What's better is that, over time, someone will come out with more PE for this kit. E-2C props. UH60s. Additional aircraft. Railings. The list could go on. This could built into an excellent model. The kit itself is impressive but the detailing options are almost endless. A lit, detailed hanger bay?

[@daviddooley5361]

Been waiting for a model of the Ford class carriers. Now if I can afford one.

[@thorkane]

just received the 1/48 F4U by Magic Factory that I'll be starting very soon. If that build goes well, I'll look at acquiring this kit

[@branchaaron2719]

The deck is massive

[@F4FWildcat]

Yes, those are Hawkeyes. Eyes of the fleet.

[@robroberson2638]

I dream about a 1/700 USS Ranger (Forrestal class) ....I believe they will continue to go unanswered

[@robertthornton1171]

I'll wait for the 1/350th kit. 1/500 could be an option.

[@doehunter]

I built the 1/350 John f Kennedy and spent a zillion hours putting on decals. I’d hate to do the 1/700 scale.

[@randomnickify]

Lol, I do expect model of Enterprise will be extremely popular. People will be stacking it with all the other ships - from the tallship one up to the Enterprise-E :)

[@roberthomicz6552]

The cvn 80 enterprise are being built and improve electronic it should be testing next yearr

[@JoeyWebber955]

It is about time for the Big Tiger Box to ship , isn`t it ?

[@douglasang3527]

No Waterline Plate 😄

[@Yardbird68]

I am still waiting, for when you can say, "And now Sprue U". 😆😆😆😆😆😆

[@charlesmcclure5994]

👍👍

[@peterszar]

Make it in 350th or 300th scale, and I'll buy one.

[@davidmccann9811]

Great looking kit, but I'm not a fan of the separate bow bulge.

[@donwest5387]

CVN 78

[@joemoore4027]

I'd wait awhile and see some builds on this companies kits. Seems a little " off " ? it might be 1/700 but, it looks overly simple and not refined ? First glance it looks like a 1980's kit. We'll see if the 1/700 scale guys go for it.

[@McFly1]

no helos?.........€€€?......thx for the video

[@Salty_Balls]

How well will this kit do falling down the stairs though?

[@Gene_Davis9]

Do you have the little bird?

[@wumao6797]

May I now the market price for such a kit in the US please?

[@TheHateSpeechChannel]

Anyone have updates on when das werk puma getting released?

[@doublenickelbob]

Pre orders?

[@gilbertleostic1903]

Quand 1 350 ?

[@MuskyJaeger19]

Amazing how the Chinese know so much about our latest military hardware.

[@blister762]

Not really. They get the internet too. Also the Jane's defense publications and other military publications. So they can get the specs on most every piece of equipment just like we do.

[@randomnickify]

Any 3d artist will be able to do something like that with a bunch of publicly available pictures, it's not magic.

[@NathanielUribe-mu9ut]

Part 15 of politely asking for a 1/16 T32E1 model

[@BattleshipOrion]

Someone actually makes them. Hopefully someone makes the decals to have 80. Sorry folks, but unless they operated during ww2, all my American carriers are USS Enterprise. 'Cuz naming ships after the POTUS only is cool for a few, and "USS Enterprise" dates back a while. Like Revolutionary, or Barbary war era, pretty much our founding.

[@normandixon4571]

beautiful model but too small for my fingers and eyes

[@jimhantsch]

$$$?

[@Custerd1]

Side benefit of the Chinese spy program: hyper realistic model kits of the latest American technology. LOL

[@randomnickify]

Any half competent 3d artist will be able to do model like that using publicly available pictures. Will it be 100% acurate? No. Will anyone notice? No. Because they will be using the same pictures to check for errors :)

[@Custerd1]

You know I was being facetious, right?@@randomnickify

[@lostsock9852]

Gotta say, I find kit opening vids less compelling than kit building ones. YMMV.

[@joeshmoe9978]

I don't think Andy has enough time for those anymore, he's probably putting a lot of effort into expanding his business.

[@lostsock9852]

@@joeshmoe9978 Fair point. But the thing that attracted at least some of us to AHH was the builds. Now it's just a sales pitch for the manufacturers. Hey ho.

[@joeshmoe9978]

[@Sarge-1972]

Need a USS Midway

[@Mishn0]

ARII did a Midway. We need a USS Coral Sea. A better Midway would be nice, but there has never really been a Coral Sea kit.
