SUB-SAM Posted June 18, 2016 Share Posted June 18, 2016 They are two different kits, I think the 1/96 is meant to be good. I know the 1/146 is not anywhere near 1/146 more like 1/180 iirc (I've been scoping out ship kits that are 1/144-150 scale) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lars_opland Posted February 19, 2018 Share Posted February 19, 2018 There are 3 Revell Constitution kits; I have them all in my attic. When I was a schoolboy in the 1960's, there was the small one (even 1:180 might be an over-estimation) with the President Jackson figurehead, & the big, beautiful 1:96 one. Somewhere along the line, they tooled a third one that is about 1:146. It is nicely shaped & molded, but only has main battery guns for the 6 ports in the waist on either side, closed gun ports for the rest & other unfortunate simplifications. Other than that, it is miles ahead of the small one, which has a blocky, peculiar underwater shape. Cheers, -Lars Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
