Constructo 80824 H.M.S. Pandora Wooden Model Kit, 1:85 Scale, NEW Sealed


The H.M.S. Pandora was a 24 gun sixth rate built at Deptford in 1779. She is best known for her voyage to Tahiti to bring back Fletcher Christian and his band of Bounty mutineers.


Plank-on-bulkhead construction uses laser cut wooden parts and, unlike other Constructo kits, the hull is double-planked. Several varieties of quality woods include basswood, walnut and mahogany. Kit is laden with finely detailed ornamentation and all the necessary fittings. Pre-finished blocks, buckets, deadeyes, belaying pins and tackle are boxwood. Stern decorations, figurehead, anchors, lifeboat, ship's wheel, pumps and gunports have been precision cast in metal. Lanterns, stanchions, rail wire and rings are brass. Armament consists of four brass cannon, 10 brass carronades on walnut carriages, plus cast metal swivel guns. Cloth flag and sails, netting and four diameters of rigging bring your model to life. Illustrated instruction manual with step-by-step assembly instructions, full sized plans and display board are also included.
