Academy German Battleship Bismarck Model Kit , Navy

I found that this was a great model to build. Slightly challenging which I enjoyed. Waiting for things to dry, that's what takes the most time. Pieces fit together nicely for the most part. There are a couple areas that were too snug and needed some love to fit together. Probably not a good beginner model, definitely worth the money.

This kit from Academy is not to be underestimated. I was reluctant at first before buying this but I'm glad I did now. The box inside and out is a wonderful treat to look at. As for all the plastic components inside they are crisp and have a good degree of detail. A little flash of extra plastic here and there but no big deal. Good preparation, a nice set of PE from Gold Medal Models and top it off with an ultra realistic KA wood deck and this Bismarck will come alive!

This kit is okay,but not great. Trumpeter kits are far superior. The forward deck on my kit was warped, so final fit is not good. There was a lot of flash, and pin marks difficult to remove. This will be my one and only Academy 1/350 kit. In the future, I will spend the little extra on Tamiya or Trumpeter.

A great looking product and fun to put together. However, I was missing two "G" templates(for lack of a better term) and as such will be missing pieces such as AA guns and life boats. Small, but extremely frustrating. If that's not bad, there's a slip of paper that says "Make sure you have all the pieces before opening their packaging, you may not be able to return the product afterwards," Well, how am I supposed to know I have everything I need without opening it? Sure I could just count the number of templates, but I would much rather just have the missing parts be sent to me than to return an, otherwise, perfect product.

Fast shipping. Good protection, beautiful kit,

The kit is large, and the detail for the price is amazing, some very minor scraping here and there but the detail, right down to the port holes in the bow. I rated this very high especially due to the price, even though it is not a toy if used properly "Displayed" in cover (Glass) should last for ever. Tamiya has some very good kits, this rivals the kits I have put together in the past. That is a lot of kits over the years. I will be looking for more Acadamy kits in the future.

Although not yet in the building stage, it looks like an excellent kit. Looking forward to the finished model.

This is a poor quality replica of tamiya 1/350 bismarck. Parts are poorly manufactured and inaccurate; descriptions are unclear and in crazy order; detail? There is no detail in this model kit... don't buy

Certaines pièces sont difficiles à s'insérer une dans l'autre...design ou précision des pièces à améliorer, quelques instructions ne sont pas évidentes dans le montage

Schöner Bausatz von Academy! Einteiliger Rumpf,überschaubare Einzelteile.Aber nicht mehr auf dem Zustand der Zeit, was Formenbau und Details ausmacht!! Dafür aber Preisgünstig.Das neueste Modell dieses Schiiffes von einer anderen Firma kostet dann mal locker 3x soviel.Form aus den 80er Jahren, wahrscheinlich kopiert von einer anderen bekannten Modellbau-Firma,deren Modell ich ebenfalls besitze,und verglichen hab.Es gibt aber Zurüstsätze für diese Schiffe.

Prodotto discreto, sebbene basato su stampi tamiya presenta non poche imperfezioni risolvibili con una buona dose di pazienza. Per il prezzo che ha è comunque un buon acquisto.

BUEN DÍA LA VERDAD COMPRE ESTE MODELO PARA MI HIJO POR QUE PENSÉ QUE ERA UN MODELO SENCILLO PERO ME LLEVE LA SORPRESA QUE ESTA MUY BONITO NO MUY DETALLADO PERO ESTA MUY PADRE QUE ENCARGUE OTRO POR EL PRECIO Y EL TAMAÑO ESTA MUY BIEN LO RECOMIENDO A UN 100% TANTO VENDEDOR, PRODUCTO Y PRECIO.
