Had some time and a few extra bucks and tried out the Cobi Blocks USS Enterprise CV6. Cobi is a Lego competitor that has an entire line of historical and contemporary ships, tanks, and aircraft. As someone without modeling and painting skills this thing was a complete blast to build and took nearly 8 hours total! Highly recommended for a rainy weekend project or an excuse to spend time with kids/grandkids. The instructions are perfect and the model is beautiful when complete and at 2.5' long will dominate a shelf, toyroom, or mantle (until the wife says otherwise).
I see they have several more ships including Warspite and Bismarck; with Hood projected for release later this year. They aren't cheap but in my opinion you get what you pay for.
