Why are the choices of ships for US customers so limited? I would love to buy the Cutty Sark or the Yamato but those models are unavailable to US customers.

The US range will increase over time. The USA is a new market for us which means we are unable to have on sale as much as we might like.

However, you may be able to purchase the Yamato and CuttySark via our International shipping dept. Simply email your request and they'll let you know and the cost, though the shipping cost is likely to be high.

Thanks for the info Tomick. I will certainly look into that option. Some friends are traveling home to the UK for the holidays. Maybe they can smuggle it back in their luggage when they return to save those shipping costs.LOL

Yes, I am looking forward to it. Jumping on that Ford Mustang as soon as its available. Already Zen modeling it...LOL Want to get my feet wet on a wooden model ship and although the ones available for the US customers are nice they are kind of intimidating looking at the builds others have done. I would love to build the Cutty Sark, one of my favorite ships. It's a sleek beautiful ship.Drool
