I bought this model expecting it might be different to its historical sister-ship the USS Constitution, but it isn't. This model is smaller than than the 1/192 scale Revell Constitution model which it shouldn't be if the 1/150 scale is correct, but the look and structure of both boats are identical. I've built the Constitution and this model. Both provide different challenges. The parts fit better with the United States but the parts are smaller and more delicate. The rigging instructions for the United States are more detailed than those of the Constitution but in some ways, it is an easier model to rig. The lifeboats are harder to fit on the United States without gluing the threads. This model looks elegant when completed, is challenging to build, but not so challenging that a beginner like myself would be too frustrated to complete.Read full review

i thought it would have been a little bigger, but as a model builder, i like it just fine.
