This submarine is perfect if you want a model that shows the interior of a U-boot in exquisite detail. It is a beautiful submarine. I absolutely love it, and I would recommend it without hesitation to anyone looking for this level of detail in a sub model.

Note that it is essentially pre-assembled. It comes in several sections that are snapped together. If you are looking for a model that requires assembly so you can feel as though you are making a submarine, this is not the sub for you.

Bear in mind that this is not a child's toy. It is aimed at adults who want to see the insides of a German U-boot. It is meant to be displayed, not played with.

Finally, the maker is Japanese and the instructions are in Japanese. This is not a problem because the assembly is so simple, but the instructions do include a nice diagram of the sub and the parts are all labeled in Japanese!

The submarine is very interesting and I if you want models for your collections this is one of the best for you.
This toys aren't for children.

This uboot submarine is tribuited by Game City. Nice item. Highly detailed in 1/144 scale. It is divided in 8 sections. each section is posible see by separated. two version by two aces: U-552 by Erich Topp or U-201 by Adabalbert Schnee.

This is a great set, it really looks good, it doesn't all fit together perfectly but it does look good segmented so that you can observe the interior details.

I purchased the U-Boat cut-away as a gift for a friend who is a history buff. The boat had such accuracy of detail that it is beyond words to describe. In the head (navy talk for bathroom), there is literally a sailor sitting on the can (navy talk for toilet). As an educational tool, I could not have asked for a better replica of this historic vessel. It was such a wonderful gift I purchased them a second one so they could display one with the side open and above it, one with the side closed.

I am very pleased with this model. Delivery was prompt and the item was well packed. While one section was missing part of the stand I was able to work around this. As is, it is a great addition to my display of 1/144 scale submarine models, but a talented detail painter could really make this model into a piece worthy of a small museum. Based on what I have seen in various references the model seems to be very accurate, and is a good value for the money. IT IS NOT A TOY FOR YOUNG CHILDREN , IT IS A DISPLAY MODEL ONLY.
