Re: German U Boat

Thnx CC. For your info its from Targa. The U Boat can be "dissected" so that you can see the compartments of the boat. Scale is 1/144 and its made of plastic My next purcahse would be their King Tiger. You might want to visit their site but its in Japanese www.targa-japan.com .A patriotic WWII german song is played whenever you click the U Boat or King Tiger. Cool if you'd asked me !

Re: German U Boat

Very nice. Is that my imagination, or does it show a torpedo being shot out of the tube? Did it come like that? What is the price of it?
 

Always, Always, Always, No matter what...Confirm the amount of fuel in your tanks before you takeoff!

Re: German U Boat

Yup, torpedoes and all...icluding the foaming sea water. Its about USD55 at my local store. It comes in set of 7 boxes.Its prepainted and pre assembled. Some parts are snap on.Its is based on a well known German U boat ( VII C ).

Thumbs up Re: German U Boat

I was wondering about the "cuts" in the first pics but the sections make perfect sense. Very cool.

Re: German U Boat

Thnx for the compliments guys. If you are into ships, another brand Takara carries the IJN Yamato and Yahagi.Scale will be 1/700. After completion the Yamato will be about 37cm Here's a sample pics.If you look carefully there are 2 Jakes at the stern of the Yamato. The Yamato is my wish list. Very Nice.....

Re: German U Boat

I think the light cruiser Yahagi is a mighty fine looking model too.
