I'm looking for a model, any scale, of the USS Little Rock from the 1960's era refit/re-commission. I've looked on Squadron, AllNavCo and GHQ and have not found one. Any ideas where else to look? Thanks! BigJoeDuke |

Contact the Buffalo and Erie County Naval & Military Park. That's where she is, so I would guess that their gift shop might have one. |

Big Joe: Iron Shipwright used to have a multi-media model in 1/350 but I don't see it listed on their website any more. Navis Neptun makes a model in 1/1250 in their 'Spider Navy' Range (rigged model): link |

BigJoe, here is a website to an outfit which shows a pic of a USS Little Rock model. I suspect it is custom, therefore pricey, but take a look. link The Buffalo and Erie County Naval and Military Park does not list a model for sale in their gift shop.

Didn't Navwar do one in 1/3000? |

closest I have ever seen is Niko's Galveston and Springfield in 1/700. They are hard to come by. Be prepared to pay $100 USD plus. |

Agreed. The Niko line can be 'hit and miss' in terms of quality too. |
