What can I say. An extremely well built and well detailed model of the black pearl. I'd go as far to say that it is probably one of the best out there without going down the full wood versions. You can even obtain the exact cotton sails for a little extra online (not cheap), but it will add that final piece of realism and detail to the model. I would say it is not for the inexperienced though. The model requires patience and some skill especially so in terms of the rigging and sails, but if this doesn't worry you then you will find this version of the Pearl well worth the money and effort and the end result a stunning model of the legendary Black Pearl ???Pros: amazing detail and well built model of the pearl for the money and one of the best plastic kits I've come across.

This is a great model that will test your patience at times but defo worth the effort. I spent 3 months working on it (had the occasional week off to relax after it pushed the limits of my frustration! The main ship build isn't too bad, but the rigging is the fiddliest thing ever! Need child sized hands and the steadiness of a brain surgeon to be able to do a lot of bits without breaking everything near what you're working on.Tips for anyone who undertakes this project is the following :1) Ignore the string measurement when the instructions tell you how long to cut it, there is so much spare you can double it and still have some left over at the end, plus this makes it easier when trying to thread through the maze of string!2)

Actually suprised with the detail of this kit and it wont need too much clean up.Its gonna be a challenge of a build and can be built into a very nice model.Im gonna be adding flickering leds to the lamps and cabin and make new masts add real material sails thread rigging and wood deadeyes.Very nice kit worth the money.4 stars as the plastic rigging is lacking rope detail and the plastic sails are a bit pony.

a good kit to make. All the part trees were individually bagged unlike some kits which is a good thing, includes 3 different types of ropes for rigging the sails ( sails are plastic but well moulded). Only downside is instruction booklet, it seems very old school and not always clear but it’s still readable. I’m still building mine at the moment and so far I’m really enjoying it, was a good investment :)

A very good model, it will be a good challenge during lockdown, Not a lot in the way of painting as most of it is black but lots of frustrating moments will be encountered with the rigging I am sure.

Excellent quality model and not for beginner. Found it easier to assemble in sections then paint otherwise you have to keep touching up. Well pleased !

Very pleased with quality and contents. Quite a substantial comprehensive model to build; especially when you get to masts and rigging.Very pleased.

Christmas present for my father, he absolutely loves it, great detail. Will keep anyone busy for a while. Not an entry level model by any means.
