First launched in 1918 and commissioned in 1920, HMS Hood was the last battlecruiser built for the Royal Navy. In May 1941, she and HMS Prince of Wales were tasked with intercepting the German Battleship Bismarck. Early in the Battle of the Denmark Strait, Hood was shelled, exploded and sank within minutes, with the loss of almost her entire crew! Revell’s detailed recreation of HMS Hood can be completed as either a full hull or waterline model and her many structures and armament are faithfully reproduced.

Revell has been entertaining, inspiring, and educating model builders for over 70 years. Revell brand is a testament to the popularity of detailed plastic model kits that are affordably priced. Launched in 1943, Revell initially produced a wide range of products, including train sets, scale buildings and action pull toys recreating some of America s most popular automobiles. However, the brand found its niche with a line of fast-building Highway Pioneers plastic model car kits in the early 1950s. After their success, Revell focused exclusively on making models that were as authentic as they were enjoyable. Most recently we are introducing our newest line, Revell Junior Kit, which allows children as young as age 5 to assemble and dis-assemble for hours of creative play. Revell manufactures model kits suitable for all ages. Revell is proud to carry on the tradition of accuracy and provide a challenging, and enjoyable pastime for all model hobby enthusiasts.
