Is the detail good and does it come with accessories like lifeboats or anything ?

Does not come with any accessories and the detail is generic. Wouldn't recommend this product!

The detail was OK for its size. Lifeboats were visible, but part of the molded deck. It worked very well, delighted our grandson, but water got into the starting lever (can't see why it wouldn't) and rusted it so that the boat no longer will move under its own power. Good for a few weeks.

There are plastic lifeboats attached. I ended up sending the one I ordered back because it was cheaply made and did not work. I should have read the other reviews first.

No and I would suggest not buying it. My son got for xmas and the propeller broke in 5 min. It is made very cheap and no it does not have accessories.

Hi Spencer the details are good but it doesn't come with accessories. My grandson just loves it.

There are a few decals that need to be applied, and the antenna needs to be installed. (very easy) I bought the boat for my grandson. He put it in the water ONE time and the right propeller does not work. It is now being repaired. Considering the cost, I was a bit disappointed, and so was he.

I purchased one at the end of the summer and it is all plastic but it's pretty well built. It's a fairly small boat, about the size of a t.v. Remote give or take but it's very quick and a lot of fun. It's also what they call an oval racer so it makes turns one direction much better than the other due to its design. I only mention it because it's frustrating if your expecting an even turn both ways. All in all for the money spent I'm very happy with it. Perfect to mess around in the pool with and it looks great on the shelf!!Good luck!

Mine came with all the necessary accessories you refer to. It also had tie wraps and rubber band mounting straps.

Three 3.75" figures can fit in the cockpit, another 3-5 in the main compartment and 1 can go in the prisoner hold. I think it looks fantastic as a display because of its size and detail. It also can be played with quite a bit because of the many features. I'd say its a must for collectors, but be sure to get a good price ($40-75) and keep the box (bc it looks good and to ensure item is "complete.")

yes, i think...very nice, very detailed. my boy is obsessed with titanic, we several larger plastic models, but this one is his fav

Yes, it is fully assembled. It is also entirely painted, and the various highly detailed markings are paint printings, not decals. The level of detail is quite high for this scale and (retail) price, and I find all 3 of my ships very pleasing shelf models (I also own the "Mirror Mirror" version, and the Klingon Bird of Prey). Downside; quality control is an issue. Online you will find reviews complaining of many assembly and paint flaws, some serious - my ships are excellent, with very few and very minor (difficult to see) issues in paint details. I am a perfectionist, and if the problems were easily visible I would return it for another. I would advise anyone to do similarly. Enjoy!

It comes with just what you see in the picture. Accessories can be mounted on the rail but must be purchased separately.

yes it does. It came with everything. My 17 year old set it up on the boat.

The model has fantastic detail. The "snap" part of it is kind of misleading, as mine still needed to be glued so that it doesn't fall into a million pieces when you pick it up or try to pose it. As far as painting goes, it shouldn't be any harder than if it were a solid color regular scale model. I plan to paint mine when I get some time and don't expect it to be any harder than other models.

The model does look very good once assembled. It looks very close to what is pictured on the box, and some simple panel lining will make quite an attractive kit.

As a beginining RC boat, I would highly recommend this boat. It's a small investment, for a large amount of fun. My Grandson loves to race it around the pool.

This boat is a toy that is in need of hobby grade parts upgrade . must be able to work on it. but it is very fun when done right. look at some YOU TUBE VIDEO on how to do it . not to much money really . I have two boats that I use all the time. good luck ,if you need help I can help you.

Well, this is a fairly small part-count model... there are two large parts (the upper and lower hulls), two more parts (plus clear "glass") for the cockpit exterior, the two gun turrets (with several small detail pieces for the guns themselves), the antenna module (which is five or six parts, plus a "retainer ring")... the side-walls (about eighteen parts total, I think) and the landing gear (which is fairly basic). The interior parts were not provided on the versions I owned. By contrast, the "Finemolds" version has literally hundreds and hundreds of (very small, intricate) parts. As for assembly time... well, that depends on how much effort you want to put into it. To just "slop it together" you could do the whole thing in an evening, with no real problem. If you want to paint it, super-detail it, light it, and so forth... you could spend as much time as you want to, weeks or even months worth of evenings. But to just build it "quick and dirty, out of the box," one evening (say, four of five hours, tops) would cover it... less if you use fast-curing solvent cement rather than standard "tube model glue."

No, I think it's perfect. I bought mine for my son for his 4th birthday and I wish I would have bought it sooner. It's a great toy that's built to last. No small parts and great action to improve motor skills, like moving sails up and down.

It's a nice quality kit unfortunately it does not come with a float. Brass floats are available at a reasonable price on the auction sites (ebay) which I ended up purchasing when I did the rebuild.

Yeah, it's a decent set. Essentially, it's a re-pop of kits made years ago but the moulds are still good and the ships build up nicely.I remember when this was a $5.00 kit. lol Let's put it this way, This wasn't my first time buying this kit and I'd gladly buy more.Also, the decals are excellent.
