Historic Ship Model Kit

The Metal Earth Golden Hind Galleon is a steel model kit containing 29 parts that assemble into a detailed replica of Sir Francis Drake's famous vessel. Designed for adult hobbyists and collectors, it requires no glue or paint for construction. The finished model measures approximately 4.33 inches long, 1.38 inches wide and 3.54 inches high and includes a display stand.

Moderate Build for Patient Adults

This kit suits builders who enjoy precise, small-scale metal assembly and have the patience for a moderate difficulty project. Tweezers or similar tools are recommended to handle the delicate components. Buyers seeking a quick snap-together toy or a model with opening hatches and interior details should consider other options.

29-Part Steel Sheet Construction

The entire ship is punched from flat steel sheets, with each of the 29 pieces folded and tabbed into place to create the true-to-scale exterior. No adhesive or finishing materials are needed, so the build relies entirely on mechanical fit and careful folding. The officially licensed kit arrives in a brand new box ready for assembly.
