Hi Jon!

I will take your word for it. 

KR (GeoHex) may have gotten the incorrect info. Comments KR? 

The 1105 DD and 1104a have the same cost, so not a problem that way (at
least to me).  

If I get my computer back up (hard drive crash), I will post pictures of
the
figure on my web site. And since I can't get new ones painted before
GZGECC,
I will use them as FFHs.

Here are some stats for the Peacekeeper/B Patrol Cutter (FF):
