Spectacular, breath-taking model kit! I own one of them! James Cameron sure started something with his 1997 movie, didn't he? Titanic has grown in public interest ever since!
Want one so bad. Want to do a series of build videos and then add it to Titanic Truths collection where it will go on tour as a compliment to a 20ft model I am currently working on
@@edwardianlinersdead7864 sounds interesting, and BIG. Would you have room for something like that? 1/8 scale would be avout 110.25 ft long, that pretty much a regular boat lol
Very informative review of the kit. However I'm surprised that you didn't mention the kit comes with the option of selecting either a 3 or 4 bladed centre propeller. It's becoming more widely accepted that while the OLYMPIC and BRITANNIC both had 4 bladed centre props, the TITANIC's centre prop was 3 bladed according to information discovered at Harland and Wolff within the last 10 or so years
What a great review on this iconic ship. I am very interested in the large ship display case as I am building a 1/200 Bismarck. Would like more info on these please?
Thanks for the unboxing, little too far out of my reach with other models I want hopefully this year. Looking forward to seeing what people come up with :).
Thanks for the unboxing! Does Trumpeter include instructions for the railing? Some of their other big kits include the railing but no instruction as to where they should go.
Hi Guy, Titanic was one of 3 ships in the class. Britannic was configured as a Hospital ship during WWI and was lost to mines. Olympic was used as a troop transport and was the last of the ships in service until being scrapped in 1937? Trumpeter ONLY supply marking for Titanic, Pontos from South Korea have in conjunction with Trumpeter released a upgrade set already. This consists of 200+ pieces of brass, props, winches, masts etc, all the laser cut decks and an extra 9 sheets of photo etch. To do either Olympic or Britannia the changes are fairly straightforward and will mainly involve the paint scheme.
Why are there so many pieces? The metal window frames should have already been in the windows when you pull it out. The room walls should not be in so many pieces. The two staircases should be included in the kit.
Hi, did you get this from an Aussie retailer? I've got a pre-order and and asked my hobby shop about it yesterday who said they contacted the distributor who said they still didn't have an ETA..
We are the Australian distributor for Trumpeter. We received the shipment of Trumpeter on Friday and got them out the door for stores same day. They should receive their stock Monday!
@@Titan52berg indeed there wasnt, i was making fun of that word He said the aft staircase led to the dining salon anyway, so yeah theres inconsistencies in layout :p
We see you have given a lot of attention to detail to what was being said in this video. We appreciate this attention to detail, so we will try to pay more attention to detail to the descriptions we use in the future ;)
Looking forward to seeing your build. :-) Since you asked at the end, here's my Academy 1 : 400 Scale version of the ship I just completed a few months ago. th-cam.com/video/Se8F400Dab8/w-d-xo.html
Can I vomit now???......................That shit just killed my eyesight!....................NO way in HELL i'd ever pay that kind of money for a plastic model kit!!

I have a plan to build a 1/8 scale replica of the titanic. Its not final yet though

@@TitanicTruths Yea I might have room for it if i get some private land, lol. For me though it would probely be the price
Great unboxing. Looks like a kit that if taken slowly and carefully will produce a beautiful show piece.
Fantastic Review! This model is truly a "must have"! Thanks and just subscribed!

Thx, great review. Like the display cases that U have to accommodate a kit of this size.
Thank you for the look at the kit
What a great review on this iconic ship.

Awesome and thorough review. Much thanks!! Cheers!!
Cool titanic

For the rigging you could download the buildingplans from the Titanic from Billing Boats
Awesome!
0:27 LOL! I like the title of this video series!
Thanks for the unboxing! Does Trumpeter include instructions for the railing? Some of their other big kits include the railing but no instruction as to where they should go.
Yes it does include the instructions for the railing.
How many price of this model kit
I love it! I gotta get one now!
Wheres the Display case for this Big ship. ? All that plastics going to attract a lot of Dust.
Great review, very informative.
I want a 1/200 scale Hercules tug to go with it for a waterline diorama. Trumpeter, are you listening??
How can you display this kit in your home when its so BIG - I would only build it if I was commissioned by a Maritime Museum...
Do you get info/decals on the sister ship so as to build a WW1 mercy ship/// also the wood decks aftermarket?

Im interested to this but i don't know where i buy it
Hello Alessa, let me know where you are located and I can recomend a local dealer that should still have stock?

Great review. Would be good to see some closeup photos of each fret and not just hand held closeup video in future videos.
Thanks for the feedback! we will keep this in mind for future videos :)

Jamie Peterson this guy is the distributor. Listen to what he says about sending out to model shops.
We are the Australian distributor for Trumpeter. We received the shipment of Trumpeter on Friday and got them out the door for stores same day. They should receive their stock Monday!
@@HobbiesAustraliaTV thanks buddy! Will be contacting my store this week.
SINK IT SINK IT!!
Grand... ballroom? What is that i never heard there was a ballroom aboard ^^'
There wasn't. He might have been mistaken in his reference to the forward and aft Grand Staircases.
@@Titan52berg indeed there wasnt, i was making fun of that word
He said the aft staircase led to the dining salon anyway, so yeah theres inconsistencies in layout :p

$ 7 big ones wow !!!!!!!
If I hear attention to detail one more time................i'll scream...........:)
If you're that easily triggered seek help.
We see you have given a lot of attention to detail to what was being said in this video. We appreciate this attention to detail, so we will try to pay more attention to detail to the descriptions we use in the future ;)
@@HobbiesAustraliaTV hahahahaha
attention to detail
Attention to detail ... how many times?? LoL 😉
Admirable effort by Trumpeter, although it looks like they went overboard on F Deck port holes. Regardless, I'm still going to get this marvel a kit.
The small holes aren't portholes, they are all the drain pipes and lavatory discharges that were placed along the hull.

Impossible.....nothing is bigger than Chaunceys ego.......
Agreed.
Can I vomit now???......................That shit just killed my eyesight!....................NO way in HELL i'd ever pay that kind of money for a plastic model kit!!
"Absolutely fantastic it's big, the detail"...........but what about the accuracy?
Still up for debate I'm afraid.
No not really. It's the most accurate kit available. If you're going to rivet count every kit your always going to be disappointed.
