Picked up the Hasegawa Tiger I today. I'll hopefully have a photo dump of the last few kits in the next few days.

Well not as in I’m finished. I just picked up several in the last week.
Added scans of the Aurora Graf Spee, Frog Whitley Long Range Bomber, and Tamiya Sherman to everything.
Added the Hasegawa Tiger I to everything.
So would you guys say there are 7 or 8(or a different number) of the Hyuga guns on the back of the dish? Part 125
I used 8 around the outer circumference.
I've seen some replica builds with a few along the inside as well, but I have found no photo evidence of those on the real thing.

Added the Mauretania scans to everything.
Just did a quick tally. Only 58 kits to go lol.
I think I only have two or three left to find. And one of them I've never even seen the box for (the Nitto Chieftain), much less have an opportunity to buy it. So might need to rely on getting a casting of whatever parts from that mythical kit are required.

Thanks again for your research. Does your bean count include duplicate kits?
Nope. lol
So it doesn’t look impressive, but this is the first cut from my new BIG 80w laser. I finally got it up and running.
What's the diameter? How much sanding of the edge is required?
That's a 3.5" and no sanding required. I just did clear acrylic for the first time. It came out awesome.

I will say that the focusing on this seems to be a bit hit or miss. They give you a guide block, but of the two different materials I used, the block didn't focus correctly on either. I had to fine tune the elevation.
