I'll try to keep this short since I don't have any complaints really. There was one landing gear, one pontoon, and the crane was damaged in shipping, but honestly with how detailed this is that was good! Speaking of the details, they really are amazing in person! I can't stress enough how nice this looks! As for on the water it looks even better! I was a little nervous to take this on the water with how nice it looked, but definitely do! I would suggest getting your ballast set in a bathtub like I did, but once you do it sails beautifully. I am curious to see how big the 1/150 one is, but I think the 1/200th is a great size! It's easy to handle and still is solid on the water. When the ballast is set it has some nice weight to it and doesn't just bob around in the water throwing off the scale appearance. It can smoothly motor along at scale speed, but does have some good power if needed. It's good to have that on tap if it would be needed for any reason such as a windy day in a lake and you'd like to be able to not be pushed around by the waves. Overall I am thrilled with this model. It's beautiful sitting on display and even better on the water.

An absolutely fantastic model. The paint, detail, and workmanship surpass expectations. And yes, even such a large, highly detailed model was specially packed in a way to arrive without any damage. If you are in the market, I would certain recommend this model.

Very fast shipping. Even Fed Ex could not destroy it. Outer box was beat up however contents were fine. The details on this ship is amazing. This is a big ship however my 1/72 scale RC Fletcher destroyer is almost twice as big. It is my favorite. Bancroft does a fantastic job.
