Build a historical plastic model of the Great Eastern ship, an extraordinary 19th-century ocean liner. This limited retro edition, created using molds from 1963, offers 222 parts, a length of 56.7 cm, and detailed representations of the side paddle wheels, propeller, five funnels, and six masts.
Great Eastern was one of the most ambitious ships in the world during its time and continues to fascinate with its size and unusual propulsion system. This 1:388 scale plastic model recalls the work of designer Isambard Kingdom Brunel and allows you to build a distinctive historical ship with a riveted hull, large side paddle wheels, and sailing rigging.
The kit is made using the original molds from 1963 and comes in classically styled packaging inspired by the 1960s. It is therefore an attractive choice for collectors of retro model kits and experienced modelers looking for a more challenging project with a historical atmosphere.
