COBI® Battleship Bismarck

The Bismarck was a German World War II battleship commissioned on August 24, 1940. It was the largest Kriegsmarine ship next to its twin "Tirpitz". On September 28, 1940, Bismarck made her maiden voyage. She was sunk on May 27, 1941, during a naval battle.The all-new ship model created by COBI was produced in a scale of 1:300. It consists of 2789 elements and is 86.5 cm long. The latest edition of Bismarck is a ship designed completely from scratch. It contains over 700 more bricks compared to older editions! It faithfully reflects the proportions of the historical ship and preserves all its essential elements, including the original camouflage. The design depicts the so-called "Baltic paint scheme", i.e., camouflage containing black and white stripes and red tops of artillery towers. Such colors were used during training in the Baltic Sea. Numerous blocks feature high-quality, abrasion-resistant prints! The model has numerous movable parts such as propellers, rudders, rotating turrets and gun barrels that can be raised and lowered. The set also includes a black brick display stand with a plate on which the name of the ship is printed. The model is huge, has great display value and we especially recommend it to lovers of history, naval engineering and block collectors. It does not require gluing or painting, because its entire body and all elements consist of high-quality COBI construction blocks.
