Titanic Platinum Edition: When perfection is your standard
Many model makers know the dilemma: you buy a kit and then invest twice as much and a lot of time looking for "aftermarket" parts because plastic alone often doesn't look realistic enough. Particularly on historic ships, plastic decks or railings that are too thick seriously disrupt the overall impression. With the Titanic Platinum Edition we end this search. We provide you with a high-end package that leaves nothing to be desired. You not only receive the kit, but also the premium components such as real wood decks and photo-etched parts, which turn a very good model into a museum masterpiece.
Why this edition is the premier class
- High-end materials: A self-adhesive real wood deck ensures an incomparably realistic look that is difficult to imitate with paint.
- Filigree details: Photo-etched parts replace coarse plastic elements and represent railings, ladders and structures in true-to-scale detail.
- Stability and appearance: Included metal tubes enhance masts and structures and ensure an elegant finish.
- Challenge for professionals: At Level 5, this kit is a challenging project that requires patience and experience.
- Imposing size: At a scale of 1:400, the finished ship reaches a length of 67 cm - a dominant eye-catcher in any room.
- Attention to detail: The finest engravings and 3D components ensure that you continue to discover new details even after construction.
The "Platinum Edition" is our answer to the desire for uncompromising quality. You're not just assembling a ship here; you reconstruct a legend using the best possible materials. The construction process is a journey in itself: laying the wooden deck requires precision, but rewards you with a warm, authentic feel. Working with the photo-etched parts requires a steady hand, but gives the model that delicate lightness that characterized the original.
This set is for you if you want to leave the "plastic look" behind. It's the ultimate project for long winter evenings where you can completely lose yourself in the technical beauty of the world's most famous ocean liner. The result is a model that doesn't look like a toy, but rather like a technical exhibit.
Background information
The RMS Titanic was more than just a ship; it was the pride of the White Star Line and a symbol of the technical optimism of the early 20th century. At 269 meters long, when it was commissioned in 1912, it was the largest movable object created by human hands. Their tragic demise after colliding with an iceberg, in which over 1,500 people died, is deeply anchored in the collective memory. The wreck, which was only discovered in 1985 at a depth of 3,800 meters, continues to fascinate researchers and historians to this day. With this model you preserve the memory of the engineering masterpiece and the human destinies that are associated with this name.

For beginners, Revell models with skill level 1 or 2 are recommended. Level 1 includes simple plug-in kits without glue, while level 2 requires basic gluing work. These models have fewer components (usually 20-50 parts) and simple color schemes. Experienced model makers should only start at level 3, as this already requires detailed painting and precise gluing work.
The packaging colors show a basic painting for quick results. However, the construction instructions contain detailed color recommendations for authentic, true-to-scale replicas. Professional model makers use the instructions' extended color palette for more realistic results. This enables both beginners to create simple projects and experts to create detailed replicas.
Revell releases new models and new editions of classic kits every month. Around 60-80 new products are released every year, including airplanes, ships, cars and RC models. The list of new products is updated at the beginning of each month. Collectors and enthusiasts should check the Revell webshop regularly, as limited editions often sell out quickly.
Revell invests significantly in product development, precise injection molds and detailed construction instructions. Each model goes through extensive design processes, tool making and quality control according to the EN 71.5 standard. The higher costs result from licensed original artwork, multilingual instructions and the use of high-quality plastics that enable precise details.
You can obtain spare parts for Revell models from official customer service or authorized dealers. Many parts can be reordered individually, although an exact kit number is required. Alternatively, specialized model building communities offer exchanges. For older, no longer produced models, 3D printing services or aftermarket manufacturers can often help.
The basic equipment includes plastic glue, side cutters, files, basic paints (black, white, gray) and brushes of various sizes. Primer, clear coat and detail brushes are recommended for advanced projects. A cutting mat set and good lighting significantly improve the quality of work. Budget beginners can start well with around 50-80 euros.
Revell RC models are differentiated according to age groups. Ready-to-run models are suitable for ages 8 and up, while kit RC models require experience in model building. Adults benefit from expandable systems and tuning options. The skill level marking helps with selection - RC beginners should start with levels 1-2, even as adults.
The Revell range includes over 400 active models, which is challenging for small retailers in terms of inventory and finances. Specialist retailers tend to focus on popular categories or regional preferences. The official Revell web shop offers the full range, while local dealers often allow special orders. Remaining stocks of older models can often be found in specialized model making shops.
We accept product suggestions via the contact form on the website. Successful proposals take into account market potential, licensability and technical feasibility. Keep in mind that developing new models takes 12-24 months. Detailed suggestions with reference material have a higher chance of success, but due to the high volume, not all ideas can be implemented.
All Revell products comply with the European toy standard and are regularly tested for harmful substances. Safety instructions in the construction instructions are mandatory and particularly concern adhesives and paints. Models below skill level 3 are designed for children aged 10 and over, higher levels require supervision or are only recommended for children aged 14 and over. The CE marking confirms conformity.
