This is a 1/700 scale plastic model kit that recreates the Royal Navy battlecruiser HMS Renown as fitted in 1942, provided as a multipart assembly kit intended for serious scale modelling.
The Renown class comprised two British battlecruisers, initially conceived as modified Revenge-class battleships. They were lengthened and reworked to carry three main turrets and reduced armor to shorten construction time, entering service in the post-Jutland era. Both ships saw service across the two world wars; HMS Repulse was sunk by Japanese aircraft in December 1941, while HMS Renown survived the conflict and was broken up in 1948.
The kit depicts the ship in a 1942 wartime configuration and is supplied as an injection-moulded multipart assembly. Kit data shows an overall model length of 346 mm, a beam of 44.6 mm, and a total of 288 plastic parts. The packaging is sized to accommodate the box dimensions and the kit is aimed at builders focused on deck layout, superstructure profile, and wartime fittings.
A compact, scale-focused plastic assembly kit that recreates the 1942 profile of HMS Renown for display or diorama use.
