About Cruiser Prinz Eugen (Prince Eugene) - Germany

1/1100 Scale Cruiser Prinz Eugen (Prince Eugene): Length: 7.5", Width: 0.75" THIS MODEL IS A JAPANESE IMPORT. THE TEXT ON THE DISPLAY PLATE IS IN JAPANESE. The model comes in a transparent plastic clam shell package. These models come already assembled and painted out of the box. There is nothing to do or needed other than take them out of the packaging and display them. Warships of the World collection from Eaglemoss is a breakthrough for both military and maritime enthusiasts. Each has details and features that even the most discriminating collectors will appreciate: A consistent 1:1100 scale that makes for a stunning display, with each ship visually comparable to all the others in the collection. Heavy-duty metal construction with finely molded plastic detail parts. Miniature aircraft with cranes, detailed guns with blast bags, and a complete superstructure. Textured surfaces that simulate wooden decks, intricate ironwork, chains and cleats. Accurate colors and markings, from anti-fouling paint on the hulls to camouflage patterns, national insignia (including roundels on aircraft), and even runway markings. A removable, customized display stand with the ship's name (in Japanese) and year. Prinz Eugen was an Admiral Hipper-class heavy cruiser, the third member of the class of five vessels. She served with Nazi Germany's Kriegsmarine during World War II. The ship was laid down in April 1936, launched in August 1938, and entered service after the outbreak of war, in August 1940. She was named after Prince Eugene of Savoy, an 18th-century Austrian general.
