5.0 out of 5 stars Nice to see an old classic kit return
First of all, this is not really a "new" kit, but a reissue of the old Aurora kit dating back to the 1960s. As such, its not the most authentic model. While the exact layout of the real Bonhomme Richard is not known, naval experts would agree the Aurora kit is not the best reconstruction. Model wise its nice to see a large size kit of a sailing ship back on the market...

This review is from: Revell 1:132 USS Bonhomme Richard Warship (Toy)
First of all, this is not really a "new" kit, but a reissue of the old Aurora kit dating back to the 1960s. As such, its not the most authentic model. While the exact layout of the real Bonhomme Richard is not known, naval experts would agree the Aurora kit is not the best reconstruction. Model wise its nice to see a large size kit of a sailing ship back on the market. The kit is not terribly difficult to build as it has molded rope ladders (not the most convincing) and molded plastic sails. You do get some nice rigging, detailed instructions, lots of little crew figures to paint, etc. The model, while not good for absolute beginners, is much easier than the giant Revell Constitution kit and would make a good first time sailing ship model for a semi experienced model builder. Even in wood, there are not many models of John Paul Jones' famous vessel.

Pleased with the purchase price and the speed of delivery. The model ship is everything I hoped it would be. Quite challenging to assemble. Thank you
