Submarine Models
Nearly everyone has some sort of hobby, and for some it’s building model submarines. Submarine modeling is much like building model automobiles or model airplanes-it involves a lot of skill, precision and patience. Some persons prefer rc (radio-controlled models), while others prefer just a regular standard model submarine. This article is about standard model submarines.
It usually consists of a kit that comes in a box with all the accessories or parts needed to put together a replica of an actual submarine. It can take hours or perhaps even days to finally construct a model submarine depending on its style, name brand, size, model or the number of parts required to build it as well as the cost. But once you get started and really get into it, submarine building can be a joy indeed.
It can also be relaxing and stress-relieving; being away from the hectic pace and demands of society, in the quiet and intimacy of your own home, slowly constructing a model submarine gives one a sense of serenity and personal satisfaction beyond compare.
As indicated earlier, there are various or different models of replica submarines that one can choose from. Which submarine models are right for you? Well, that depends on your level of experience or expertise. Are you an expert model builder or just a beginner? Can you get a model submarine kit that fits your budget? What are the most popular brands? The following price considerations may be helpful to you, the consumer:
Most Popular Model Submarines and Their Price Ranges:
As alluded to previously, there can be differing price ranges of model submarines as well as the most popular brands. Model submarines can cost as little as $18 or even less or as much as $600 or more, depending, of course, on your budget. You know what you want-or don’t want.
But the most popular-brand model submarines are in order, and they are:
- The Revell (Revell models have always been popular models for years) Vii C Wolf Pack U-Boat for $119 or the Revell 1/72 Gato Class Submarine for $107.48; then there’s the Seawolf Class Submarine for $199; and another Seawolf model for $299.
- If you really want a museum-type model submarine, then perhaps you can go for the Gato Classic Submarine Wood Model (which consists of pure mahogany wood) for (are you ready?) $750 (I warned you!), or another model just a little more, for $799. And mind you, these are standard model submarines, not radio-controlled.
This is just a suggestion. Again, it depends on what you think you can actually afford.
But if you’re just a beginner, then it’s usually best to stick with the basics until you understand what model submarines are like and you’re absolutely sure you know what you’re doing. It’s basically best to start with a cheaper model at first, just so you can get the feel of it. Low-cost model submarine beginners are:
The Futura Warship 5″ Wwii I-58 Japanese Submarine for just $12.95; Bronco Model 1/350 Chinese 039g Attack Submarine for $19.95; a 1700 Aoshima IJN Submarine, $26.95; a 1700 Green Hobby Boss Model Submarine for just $5.99; Lee3402 Stingray Atomic submarine models for $24.95; Bronco 1350 Model Hms, Vanguard S28 Ssbn for $23.49; or the Model Kit from “Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea” Flying Submarine for only $15.75.
So there you’ve have it, a host of model submarines you can choose from. Again, it depends on what you want and what you can really afford. But whichever one(s) you choose, enjoy! For building model submarines can be a truly satisfying and fun hobby.
