ScottRC Posted January 6, 2014 Share #3 Posted January 6, 2014 It is the same kit with an added set of parts for added roundhouse on the poop deck. This kit pops up on the auction sites quite a bit.

popeye the sailor Posted January 24, 2014 Share #4 Posted January 24, 2014 ahhhhhh.....the Revell 1:96 kit........I'm building my second one, but I'm changing it up a little. I got mine from E-Bay......wicked good price too! the kit is becoming rare.......all I've been seeing is the 1:150 kit out there. too bad that the Connie kit is the only one in the series that survived........this series was the crown in the Revell line up, back in the day. it is true that this kit is a spin - off of the Connie kit. I'm not too sure how well you would do......I think Revell is doing away with the missing parts dept, but if you would like....I can create the parts list to 'mod up' a Connie kit. one advantage you will have {and I'll be quite jealous}, is that you will have all of the stern quarter's parts.......these have been omitted in the United States kit no walls for the aft quarters......I want ti add them in. these are pretty much all the parts you would need to mod a Connie kit. the kit number is H-396 Quote I yam wot I yam! finished builds: Billings Nordkap 476 / Billings Cux 87 / Billings Mary Ann / Billings AmericA - reissue Billings Regina - bashed into the Susan A / Andrea Gail 1:20 - semi scratch w/ Billing instructions M&M Fun Ship - semi scratch build / Gundalow - scratch build / Jeanne D'Arc - Heller Phylly C & Denny-Zen - the Lobsie twins - bashed & semi scratch dual build Billing T78 Norden in dry dock: Billing's Gothenborg 1:100 / Billing's Boulogne Etaples 1:20 Billing's Half Moon 1:40 - some scratch required Revell U.S.S.

popeye the sailor Posted January 24, 2014 Share #6 Posted January 24, 2014 I picked mine up for around $50.00 {kit and shipping}. when I bought it for the first time.......I paid $89.99......that was from a hobby store back in the late 80's. the Cutty Sark is the most common. I believe the one that is the rarest would be the Kearsarge { a spin off of the Alabama kit}......I saw it on E-bay with a $250.00 price tag! the United States kit can very easily fetch a price over a hundred bucks.....I hope you have as good of luck, as I did Quote I yam wot I yam! finished builds: Billings Nordkap 476 / Billings Cux 87 / Billings Mary Ann / Billings AmericA - reissue Billings Regina - bashed into the Susan A / Andrea Gail 1:20 - semi scratch w/ Billing instructions M&M Fun Ship - semi scratch build / Gundalow - scratch build / Jeanne D'Arc - Heller Phylly C & Denny-Zen - the Lobsie twins - bashed & semi scratch dual build Billing T78 Norden in dry dock: Billing's Gothenborg 1:100 / Billing's Boulogne Etaples 1:20 Billing's Half Moon 1:40 - some scratch required Revell U.S.S.
