We often get asked if sold out items will ever return to stock. Typically we say no, since many items are made in single batches, although we have learned in recent years that some times treasure troves exist, if you turn over enough rocks. Earlier today, we were told that several sold out DeAgostini Warships of the Second World War will be returning to the high seas in November, among them the USS Saratoga, IJN Yamato, and HMS Vanguard, three of the quickest selling warships in the series. Quantities are limited, so if you are interested in procuring any of these favorites, we strongly recommend pre-ordering them now before they make port during the holiday season.
DeAgostini Warships of the Second World War
The Fleet Is In!
Ordinarily, Memorial Day Weekend signifies the start of Fleet Week here in New York City, but it looks as if the warships have entered port a bit early this year. This week, we received no less than eight new 1:1250 scale capital ships from DeAgostini’s Warships of the Second World War collection. Priced at just $21.99 apiece, these warships have been flying off of our warehouse shelves since they started arriving a few years ago and represent fitting tributes to the men and machines that prowled the high seas during World War II. The new ships include:
- Royal Navy Vanguard Class Battleship – HMS Vanguard (23)
- Imperial Japanese Navy Kongo Class Battleship – Kirishima
- Royal Navy King George V Class Battleship – HMS King George V (41)
- Royal Navy King George V Class Battleship – HMS Anson (79)
- Royal Navy Renown Class Battlecruiser – HMS Renown (72)
- US Navy Pennsylvania Class Battleship – USS Pennsylvania (BB-38)
- Royal Navy Nelson Class Battleship – HMS Nelson (28)
- US Navy Lexington Class Aircraft Carrier – USS Saratoga (CV-3)
