john53 Posted December 14, 2011 Share Posted December 14, 2011 I have that kit and was looking at doing it as Balao. It has a pretty good war record, more interesting than the Lionfish. There is an upgrade set in resin that is reviewed at Steel Navy.Go here http://www.steelnavy.com/nautilus.htm Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gharlane Posted December 15, 2011 Author Share Posted December 15, 2011 just what i was looking for . thanks for the info Quote Link to post Share on other sites
john53 Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 (edited) You are welcome. Also the Revell kit CAN be used as a Gato class sub. It was boxed as USS Growler SS215 and USS Flasher SS249. Supposedly it best represents the Flasher as it is now.Since I found that out I have seriously considered doing a Wahoo.

rokket Posted January 22, 2012 Share Posted January 22, 2012 The resin we make is al for the Big Beast, the 1:72, but you might find some good info anyway on the AMP forum, here's the Gato link: http://models.rokket.biz/index.php?board=10.0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RickyHodge Posted February 6, 2012 Share Posted February 6, 2012 Hey dude which type of kit it was what are the equipment it contain. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
gharlane Posted February 8, 2012 Author Share Posted February 8, 2012 (edited) sorry to take so long replying. here is the website that i got the set(s)from. Nautilus Models. just scroll down about halfway down the page and you will see the link for the accessories for the Lionfish . i picked the 1/144 PE set for the Trumpeter kit and the resin weapons set.i was disappointed at the resin weapons set as they were AWFUL. worse than the weapons that came with the kit itself. the PE set is pretty good but kinda fiddly. for the weapons i purchased the White Ensign 1/144 4" deck gun. i am waiting on restock for the 20mm AA weapons.
