Bandai Hobby Going Merry Model Ship One Piece

Really fun, although this one has too many stickers that are some times hard to get in place. All the instructions were in japanese but really straightforward.

Excellent detail and great product

Hubby loved it

After assembly it looks amazing

Being a One Piece fan I just had to get a model ship of The Going Merry as well as The Thousand Sunny. My review for the Merry and the Sunny will probably be very similar so if you want to check that out you can but it isn't necessary. I haven't put them together yet. I wasn't planing on buying any model kits because I honestly didn't want to put the time into putting them together. After the episode when they had to say goodbye to Merry it broke my heart and I just had to have The Going Merry. Now getting to my review I would like to point out that there is an option to paint. It isn't required because it does come with stickers to put on the Merry but I almost would recommend painting it because it'll be leaving out a lot of detail if you don't. The stickers just cover the basic stuff. You could totally just put it together and toss it on your shelf and it'd still look fine if you really wanted too. I'm probably going take the time to paint it. This kit does come with a manual but it's unfortunately all in Japanese. There are pictures that show you what to do and how to put it together so that's a plus. I can't read Japanese so I will have to look for a translation for the painting guide. I did happen to find the painting guide in English for The Sunny. The kit also comes with small figures of the crew. I took a picture of them next to a quarter to help you see a size compassion. Because I have yet to put this together I can't tell you for certain how big it will turn out. It almost looks like it may end up being bigger than The Thousand Sunny model. Which kind of bugs me because it's suppose to be smaller. I also provided a picture of the base of both boats. Again I have yet to put either of these models together because I still need to get the paint for them so I could be wrong about how big the finished product will be. I really don't have much of a review for this product yet because I haven't put it together or painted it yet so once I am able to do that I will edit my review and I'll have more pictures of it so you can see it finished.

Great gift, relatively easy to put together

Excelente figura Y de gran calidad

My son loves it
