Product Description
The Higgins Boat model made of COBI construction blocks faithfully reflects its historical inspiration, maintaining the popular 1:35 scale. The block boat is a completely new structure, designed from scratch. The model is 36cm long. It has an opening ramp and a detailed full hull. The set includes movable elements such as two machine guns with covers and a mechanism for lowering and raising the front ramp based on a cable system.
We didn’t forget about such details as the rudder, turbines and the opening hatch with the outline of the engine underneath, either. The set uses permanent prints only. To display this beautiful model, we designed a special brick display stand with a plate containing the name of the boat. The set also includes two figures depicting an American infantry soldier and a sailor from the boat crew. A large US flag printed on both sides’ flies on the Higgins Boat, as well.
This is a special D-Day anniversary set intended for enthusiasts of history, military technology and block modeling! Build history, piece by piece, with COBI!
