Actually suprised with the detail of this kit and it wont need too much clean up.Its gonna be a challenge of a build and can be built into a very nice model. Im gonna be adding flickering leds to the lamps and cabin and make new masts add real material sails thread rigging and wood deadeyes. Very nice kit worth the money. 4 stars as the plastic rigging is lacking rope detail and the plastic sails are a bit pony.

What can I say. An extremely well built and well detailed model of the black pearl. I'd go as far to say that it is probably one of the best out there without going down the full wood versions. You can even obtain the exact cotton sails for a little extra online (not cheap), but it will add that final piece of realism and detail to the model. I would say it is not for the inexperienced though. The model requires patience and some skill especially so in terms of the rigging and sails, but if this doesn't worry you then you will find this version of the Pearl well worth the money and effort and the end result a stunning model of the legendary Black Pearl πππ Pros: amazing detail and well built model of the pearl for the money and one of the best plastic kits I've come across. The wood equivalents would be 3 times as expensive in terms of price. Cons: not for the inexperienced and doesn't come with paints, glues or tools etc. These have to be purchased separately. You are also looking at another Β£58 plus for the real cotton sails as these can be bought separately.Read full review

Very disappointed to receive the the ship a lot of money to spend on something when you don't even get the model paints with it when says kit

Unnecessarily difficult due to poor instructions particularly with regard to the rigging sequence. A lot of the rigging could have been attached to items K2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 46 at a much earlier stage and left to lay over the side of the vessel. To try and attached the rigging in the fashion as per instructions with other sails and rigging in place is near impossible. The building of this kit is supposed to be enjoyable and relaxing not stressful. The rigging instructions in general at times are crystal clear but in other parts very ambiguous. To summerise - unnecessarily difficult
