Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)None of the Philippine crafted Titanic models are very accurate, although they portray Titanic's hull lines with some fidelity.
What they lack in correct detail they make up for with "personality." They are boldly painted, with the decks almost as deeply hued as the dark buff funnels. Prices vary from about $500 for a model with no pedigree to a now-dead survivor's autographed example at $1,500. The more expensive ones at first glance look just like their cheaper kin, but closer examination reveals finer craftsmanship. Those few signed models will probably be the only ones to hold some monetary value.
Overall these Manila products are accurate enough to look "right" to a casual observer.
If you are looking for perfection, you'd better build your own!
