I know this post is old, but is there any chance of seeing the late KGV version? I want to build a 1945 version and would like to have a Pontos kit. If not, how much of the 1941 KGV kit could be used on a later fit?

Thanks,
Chris

For personal request, we can show the links. So please contact via email.

We've already started 1/350 Revell Bismarck from last year. But the main problem is new products that we had not thoughts have been released and have cut in this Bismarck (and more WWII Iowa class for Tamiya) schedule.
Anyway 1/350 Bismarck and Iowa follows after 1/200 series.
Hope we can pull down these two kits from our storage shelves as soon as possible.

Thank you
Kim
Hello Mr. Kim,
Yet another year has passed since this response which referenced a 2012 reply. What are the prospects for the Revell 1:350 Bismarck for the remainder of 2014?

I think over 70% can be used for the later KGV with our detail set.

Re: The Ship's Bell location.
From two IWM photos of the bell, one of it being rung by a coxswain and another showing a Royal Marine Bugler with it in the background, it was hanging below a carley float just forward of an open scuttle. The only place on the main deck where they had these was along the outside of the Wardroom Flat, technically, part of the quarterdeck. The scuttle hinge is to the left and, as the hinges were at the forward edge, this means it was the "Port" or left side of the ship. So, my choice of position is just aft of, and above, the aft-most scuttle on the port side of the wardroom flat where it lies parallel with the side of the ship.

I think we can spot it on this still I captured from a cine-film taken from a boat passing KGV at anchor.

I've bought the PoW set. There was a problem with the brass barrels of the 2nd turret (the twin turret.) Whenever it is mounted in triple or quadruple there isn't a problem, but the twin mounting caused one barrel to stuck and couldn't go fully down while another one could. Is that happens with your build?

Regards.

Looking at the instructions, I believe you can make either version.
