RMS Olympic

Atlantic elegance in brick form

Bring the golden age of transatlantic ocean liners to your display with this historic ship model. RMS Olympic entered service in 1911 and was the sister ship of the famous RMS Titanic and HMHS Britannic. Her long hull, bright superstructure and distinctive funnels capture the technological optimism of the early twentieth century. COBI's interpretation focuses on the unmistakable exterior silhouette of the real passenger liner. Layered deck lines, masts and maritime details give the compact model a strong visual identity. The result is a calm, nostalgic display piece that evokes an earlier age of ocean travel.

The 595-piece build creates a 38.5 cm long model at 1:700 scale, with clearly tiered decks despite its slender proportions. Construction alternates between extended hull sections, smaller superstructures and repeating details along the upper decks. Offset plates and sloped elements shape the liner's characteristic profile as the narrow structure develops into a stable ship silhouette. The methodical process remains approachable for less experienced builders and settles into a satisfyingly steady rhythm. Placed on the included display stand, the finished model reaches an overall height of approximately 12 cm.

RMS Olympic is designed for ship enthusiasts, history fans and collectors looking for a compact representation of a real liner. With a manufacturer's age recommendation of eight and up, it suits patient younger builders as well as adults seeking a relaxed project for an evening or two. The ship itself is the sole focus, rather than figures, accessible interiors or action-oriented play features. It looks particularly effective in a display cabinet, on a desk or alongside other historical vessels. As Titanic's less frequently modelled sister, Olympic adds her own remarkable and enduring story to your collection.
