1/700 German Battleship Bismarck

One of the most famous battleships of WWII, Germany's Bismarck reached nearly legendary status in the early days of the war, punctuated by the spectacular sinking of the British battlecruiser Hood. The Bismarck herself was then sunk shortly afterward by the combined might of British Naval forces, but not before having established a myth-like legacy.

Aoshima's 1/700 Bismarck is a re-release of its excellent waterline Bismarck kit, this time without the Z-class destroyer included in the previous releases. The molding is sharp and the detail is fine.
