I know the 2011 version is pretty good - a friend built one.

You sure it is "2011". The kit was released in 2011 and 2006. But I haven't seen any bearing the 2011 year on the cover.
If in doubt, go for the latest release. But a 5 year difference in this releases that use the same cover art probably means nothing changed radically.

Edit, just found a photo of the 2011 release. It is the exactly same cover art as the others.
Probably nothing much changed. Usually when they make significant changes to the design the kit is released under another catalog number.
The previous incarnation of the Bismarck in GPM was #28 at 1:300 scale in the 1990s ore something like that.
