There's King George class battle ship 1/700 scale from Matchbox HMS York which is a sister ship of the Prince of Wales.

MatchBox has been out of production for a while but there is a chinese version of it coming out of Macau. Sorry, don't know how to help you there. I bought my HMS York from MHM when they had stock.

The shipwreck version will not be very interesting because the ships are resting with their bellies up.
Best to go for waterline. Tamiya is still the best and only option in 700 I think for both the ships unless you want to have the 600 scale by Frog. I think HHQ still has them. They were the Airfix mould.

1/350 scale is too big for me to hand paint.. if the yamato wreck have lost it main gun then i just build the water line ... the tamiya 1/700 is abit of a pinch after + shipping..

Revliss,
you should give Tamiya Underground a call because they give 40% off to SFTPMS members.....
