The Titanic kit looks like a life time job. Good lord, my child could use that hull as a canoe.

[@markhenke2709]

Actually only 1200+ basic parts

[@SeansModelBuilds]

@@markhenke2709 ONLY 1200 parts? That's like me saying, "I have only 70 models to build." Lol

You should buy about 24 of them. LOL

[@dkev001]

With a titanic price!

[@ohlawdy6855]

I really love that they gave you the 4 bladed and 3 bladed versions of the center propeller. Since it's a bit of a topic of debate I really appreciate them giving you the option to choose

[@philliprhodes2299]

Looking forward to seeing the 1/1 scale Tiger Tank!

[@jeffmack2667]

I hope it's made out of iron.lots of super glue needed

[@johndoecake]

There is one in a german museum

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

They really out did themselves with the Titanic, she's beautiful. Hey I know a perfect addition to the 1/1 88 mm shell a 1/1 Tiger I, what do you think...just saying.

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

@Stug 3 117 Would make one heck of a dream come true...LOL.

[@EaglesROLB59]

"You're gonna need a bigger bench!" That said, I saw a video on here that mentioned a 1/1 scale Tiger 1 in a museum in Germany I think. I guy had built a "FrankenTiger" out of salvaged parts, sold it to a museum or someone, then commissioned the plastic one for his own museum.

[@opalprestonshirley1700]

@@EaglesROLB59 That would be great to see.

[@GlassTopRX7]

A 8.8 cm KwK 43 L71 Shell, from a king tiger.

[@ernestpaul2484]

That Tiger I will have more than 4 parts for assembly, but it would be so worth it.

[@TheSaturnV]

That 88 round would be awesome with a big hunk of lead or a sleeve of sand inside to make the weight realistic.

[@johnwyer4153]

Can't wait to see your Titanic.

[@timvaughn8696]

88 mm round is awesome

[@kevesdancey]

Great video Andy, I love the 88mm shell and another awesome massive kit from trumpeter. 👍👍 Thanks

[@EaglesROLB59]

"...a tiny rudder for such a big ship!" Absolutely Andy...that was the principal reason that she was not able to avoid the iceberg once it had been spotted. On such small details are lives decided.

[@fidinboca]

Thanks man, I did not know that .

[@hugos5114]

But the rudder wasnt smaller than other ships. Look at Imperator for exemple, she had an even smaller one, was built after the disaster and was bigger. This shows, along with pictures of titanic turning at sea, that Olympic class liners were very manoeuverable.

[@joehinojosa8314]

That 88 shell is DA BOMB!

[@AtheistOrphan]

Joe Hinojosa - I see what you did there.

[@joehinojosa8314]

@@AtheistOrphan You're an "atheist" modeler? Atheism is MORE interesting than military models

[@joehinojosa8314]

@@AtheistOrphan Athei is more interesting than modeling because it's a valid philosophical paradigm(world view)that attempts to address questions of ultimate existence and meaning(or lack thereof,nihilism) and it's implications are powerful for society as in Bolshevism in1917

[@j3v167]

Andy, what you should do with the 88mm tiger shell is to find out the correct weight of it and then fill it with lead so that any person wishing to pick it up will have an idea what a mission it was for the loaders to remove these from their racks and load them into the cannon in quick succession..

[@MAN394631]

Both kits are amazing, even i would never build a Titanic, but the 88mm shell comes to my Must-Have-List. Thank you Andy, Greets from Germany

[@franc3177]

Andy. Just finishing my first ship. WW1 dreadnought. Your tips,tutorials and enthusiasm have not only spurred me on. Thanks and keep up the good work.

[@toddreaker2298]

I want that 88mm shell !

[@markhenke2709]

Man you took the words right out of my mouth with the overkill PE... I just want the brass parts and decking also.. doesn't look like the detail up set even has brass masts as there was available for smaller scale (1:350/400) versions. I started work on the hull there is probably easy a few weeks work you can do like finishing and drilling portholes. Also I think you can complete the first deck before having to worry about anything and still being able to lay the veneer decking. Pontos they layout nice have from 1:200 Bismarck complete set!

[@tomsbasement4884]

That 88mm round... take my money already!

[@MrDredd1966]

That 88mm AP round would make a awesome door stop!!😊

[@Nelsonwmj]

This Titanic looks absolutely dope. Sooner or later there's going to be someone who buys this and makes it RC. That'd be a sight.

[@PanzerBuyer]

Shell, must have, give, now..

[@joeshmoe9978]

I'll second that.

[@rebelndirt8830]

The Titanic looks like it would make a great RC model as well.

[@kamdenbarclay486]

When you were talking about the stairs and called them ladders, that is the correct naval parlance used to describe them because they are so steep.

[@robertjensen1094]

This episode brought to you by the letters S and T. 🤠

[@AtheistOrphan]

Robert Jensen - Yeah I noticed that too. What’s that about?

[@Tallio100]

That Titanic kit looks awesome and scary at the same time. I wish I had space for this around here because it is propably pretty much fun to build.

[@billyray94]

Wow.... I'd LOVE to build that Titanic model. But I'd have to sacrifice time better spent on the models already in line to be built. We can't build everything. Thanks so much for sharing that Andy. Maybe do a "team build" where you bring in some of your best customer modelers, and tag-team the thing?

[@benharding5727]

note, iceberg not included in 1/200 RMS Titanic

[@0311uli]

🤣🤣🤣

[@crazymotionride]

Got this kit rough assembled already trying to plan how to paint it, 10/10 kit would recommend! It looks amazing just sat here in bare plastic let alone painted and weathered. Need a build vid Andy i need tips!

[@brucesmith1383]

Beautiful hull of the Titanic, Andy! From Canada 🇨🇦

[@JackFlemingFan1]

Thanks for posting another excellent video and model kit review from you, Andy. WOW what a model the Trumpeter 1/200 RMS Titanic with LED kit is and I can not imagine building something like this and then trying to figure out where would I put it! The 88mm Tiger Tank shell is something else too!

[@stephenharrington528]

Trumpeter have done themselves prowed with this kit good luck with the build Andy if and when you start it Steve 🇬🇧

[@Scout1134]

I hope they make an Allied 75mm round too. I think they would be popular with modelers and not too difficult to produce.

[@Gamer_1745]

You are sold out on the 88mm shell, when are you getting more?

[@metalmadnessSL]

The 88mm is sold out on your store. I hope you can get more of this soon.

[@Titan52berg]

Mine just arrived!

[@Duececoupe]

The ship that I want Andy, is the USS Yorktown CV-5 in 1/200....I'm a bit USS Yorktown CV-5 and CV-10 crazy (and USS Coral Sea CV-43)! Looking forward to see build it in the future, it's gonna be epic!! Now you just need Luka to cough up money for one and you can have a buddy build!! 😉😆😂

[@historicmilitaria1944]

it should be noted the molded details to the "tiger tank" shell baseplate indicate it to be an 8.8cm flak 18 round...for the towed flak artillery piece..its not detailed for a tiger tank shellcase, and so should be painted grey steel, not brass.

[@robinlecomte1242]

It was not only the lack of lifeboats, it was more the English approach to sea/ships/paying passengers (of the time) - nothing was going to happen, music/food/wine/dancing/sea air - why train a crew to deal with an emergency, that never was going to happen!. Oh, the "screws" are actually propellers. The actual rudder was huge. I mean huge, by length (top to bottom- the scale does not do it service), it was a big ship, it needed a big turning blade. Pleasing to see the manufacturers present a product with detail, but that is Trumpeter.

[@Basaljiggler803]

That kit look beautiful even before it’s built

[@raimondaszujus1052]

I saw this "Titanic" kit in our town, on the window of an antique store.

[@carmium]

Andy! You should have filled that 88 shell with plaster before putting the end cap on! Something like that needs some heft!

[@ingandang]

Wow Barry big! And great detail

[@TacoTeaser]

Might I suggest adding weight to the 88 shell? Perhaps sand?

[@vegaboys8196]

THAT"S THE BIGGEST MODEL I'VE EVER SEEN!!!

[@vernebeck8108]

Vega boys: yeah, I remember the andries miniatures u-boat , some years ago that scaled out to 6 feet long.

[@xjr13john]

Looks like all the portals need to be drilled out in the hull for the 2nd & 3rd class decks and add more lighting for the Titanic to look correct. Tiger shell looks cool what make brass paint did you use Andy.

[@mrbluesky2050]

three points, 1, So that's why you expanded the store. . . . 2, don't mess with the LED's just install a 4' fluorescent tube, and 3, Don't let your thumb fall off, that cut looks bad...

[@doublenickelbob]

One super big kit. I just might have to get this one.

[@keithspencersr.6806]

That’s going to be fun watching you build, go Andy, go Andy, lol

[@DavidRamirez-ww5kv]

Thanks for the great kit reviews Andy. I would love to see the Titanic build - that would really be something. I have a 1/350 scale Titanic which I have yet to build because I have so many kits that I want to get built before I build the Titanic. I probably will be building my 1/350 Lusitania. She was really a war ship if you study the history. It’s an older kit but still would be a good build.

[@TitanicTruths]

Im hoping to get ine for my own video series. Unlike most model I do, this one I want to leave grey/brass. I just like the look for some reason.

[@chrisjpfaff314]

I am sure that Andy will do this Titanic kit justice. But this is definitely not the project for anyone other than the most advanced modelist. There are a couple of other people with sites that have this kit and the P/E stuff is just insane. Prepare for a multi year project to do it right.

[@2kidsnosleep]

Huge kit!! Ready to make, just add ice

[@joeshmoe9978]

That "Titanic" is quite titanic. 😛 Hopefully Pig models comes out with a 75mm U.S. shell for Sherman and Lee fans.

[@johnmance6031]

Well like any Titanic model, zero to very little weathering to be done, since she was brand spanking new when she was lost...got get my hands on that..also I’d be tempted to add some weight to that 88 model..

[@randomnickify]

Unless you go for underwater diorama, then you can go nuts with weathering :)

[@hugos5114]

She actually had lots of rust on her hull as she was already a few years old (building and fitting out took time)

[@chuckdeg5267]

Are you going to do a build video of that ship? That would be great to see in a multi part video. Keep the great videos coming!

[@zapper302]

Awesome kits. Put some weights in the bottom of the 88.

[@belloso16]

PLEASE MAKE A VIDEO OF THE TITANIC! I’d watch a 3 hour video of that, if I have to.

[@ThatAussieBloke1]

fill the hull with Beer and scull it!

[@martiniv8924]

Titanic , what a kit ! 👌🏻😎

[@PhuVet]

Come on Andy, I completely expected you to get started in this video.

[@matthewezell1911]

I definitely want that shell. As far as te Titanic, well, maybe once my skills improve.

[@KeremDrngl]

thank you for this video sir. she seems very cool. i hope i can find this kit in my country, this is usually very difficult. I struggled through over two years for 1/200 missouri kit for example =)

[@stephenhill9303]

kit is roughly 53" long so not quite 5' but still very large

[@EMTBonsai]

That'll be a nightmare drill all them port holes out haha! I want the German uboat they have done with the see through side and working leds

[@larryscarafile7309]

Makes me wish I built ship models

[@UnsilentErkenntnis]

Wow Titanic enorme kit!!!

[@michaeljohnson-li5nn]

If I were to build the Titanic kit I would be tempted to add a few extra lifeboats.

[@daveshick9376]

what paint was used on the shell? The casing looks like it could use a whole Home Depot rattle can

[@paintnamer6403]

The responses should get Pig models to create a gun/cannon Shells of the World series. Thadbecool!

[@TestECull]

I see that model and I'm thinking 'Where can I get my hands on a Stuart double-10V engine, a suitable boiler, and some RC gear....'

[@bandwagon240]

The 8.8 cm shell looks a bit small compared to the real one I am using as an umbrella stand. Mine is a flak shell, could possibly be why.

[@sithompson74]

It says USD180 for the extra detailing kit right their on the flyer

[@titanicman9329]

I just saw the Honor and Glory logo on the side of the box.

[@robertthornton1171]

Wow what a kit. However if I had that kind of money for a kit I would most likely spend it on the 1/200 USS Hornet first.

[@modergav]

Wait, all the portholes are closed in the hull?

[@AtheistOrphan]

Luis Gustavo Ferreira - Yep.

[@GregsModels]

1/1 Tiger shell "excellent".

[@rudolphbondefangerer5513]

I would really love to build that Titanic, but I don't have the space to build it! My mancave can't handle that sort of thing. And where should I keep it? I would have to build a greenhousy thing in the garden... yes, YES!! The car will have to give up its place in the garage for a while, and Ill tell the wife that we will need a greenhouse!!

[@adamhaven8528]

Tiger shell looks awesome, how much will it be roughly?

[@SamuelProcopio]

Nice vídeo! Did you build it? If so, do you have the video?

[@glennvogt1194]

You may want to do a group build for the Titanic.

[@lesthiele4921]

Hi Andy, another two great reviews, but neither are for me, but I look forward to when you do build the Titanic, take care, keep safe and happy modelling.

[@MegaScotsman1]

Andy you gonna show building it

[@eobardthawne5246]

I don't have room for that kit but I still want it, the only solution is to chop it in half for a sunken Titanic diorama.

[@sydive130]

Titanic has got RC conversion written all over it! Then I saw the UK price!

[@donaldparlettjr3295]

I'd try to find a way to make the brass gleam.

[@kevinjhonson5925]

This looks so much better than the mini craft titanic. I gave up on the kit the parts were warped and the fit was absolutely horrible. The hand rails were all moulded plastic that was way out of scale. They wanted you to heat the hand rails in hot water and bend them 90 to make corners. This kit looks nice I might get this and chuck the mini craft. Avoid it at all costs.

[@TGML_Gaming]

Looks like the titanic itself can fit in there.

[@pulkol80]

Great review! Greetings from Poland🇵🇱🇵🇱🇵🇱

[@mecfeast5303]

Nice video. did the tiger use flak shells? shouldnt it be Kwk?

[@bigeddie1231]

Hi Andy. WOW! That is a dream kit. What does it cost?

[@chaosda_clown6700]

Do they have a US 35mm ap round They have a special place for me

[@redmist1122]

Wow! Talking about large kits...you hit the jack pot. Interesting to hear how many hours you'll vest into building the Titanic model. Very interested in the Tiger round. Cost? Is there a line of other shells to buy...like a Sherman one? Great for comparison. Thanks for another great video!

[@marinekreitschi9565]

Good evening, how are you ? Sorry to bother you but would you be so kind as to tell me the colors I should use to paint the titanic because I have lost the references? Could I have the references of Mr hobby and Tamiya please? Thanks in advance for your response, Best regards

[@donfrandsen7778]

Andy !!! Truly exciting!!! Just phenomenal kits, thank you for showing these. Wow!!!! These videos are one of my highlights of creativie model mojo enhancers for the week!! Andy Just incredible!!!! Always look forward to these Andy Bravo! It so encouraging to see a brick and mortar base succeding as in your shop!! And of course the online shop as well!! Really !! Congrats!!! So many kits Andy....lol!!! I suggest if you video your titanic build do it in phases....just saying Lol!!🤣😂😄😃 Also how about some more diorama ideas....Winter Battle of buldge or Berlin or Africa WW II scenes. Perhaps Battle of Okinawa? Palm tree build? Figures? Keep em coming Andy!!!! EXCELLENT!!!!!

[@NapFloridian]

Which version is this one? Is this the sinking one or the floating one?

[@kshatriya1414]

Just go to a military show/sale and you will find 88mm shells real easily. Might not be german shells but they are real

[@Miguel-re2hv]
