However, if you possessed any of the Hasegawa or Skywave aftermarket part sets, you would have the extra guns needed for Leyte Gulf or Okinawa. Main guns missing are six twin (open) 5 inch mounts. There's around ten or so triple 25mm turret mounts missing as well.
Main guns have blast bag molded on. Seconaries have rivets you can see. The main radar director on top of the forward superstructure is really nicely done. Main turrets have the "step" in front. Vision slits and portholes on the main superstructure are amazing: crisp and accurate. The stack has all steam piping and mounting brackets. Beautiful box art too.
Cheers,
Don
