Product Description
- An attractive kit with a mechanical representation of a research space installed on the ocean floor
- This is a 1/93 scale plastic model assembly kit that reproduces Sealab, an undersea research space developed by the US Navy in the 1960s.
[About Sealab]
- Sealab is an underwater experimental facility developed by the US Navy in the 1960s.
- Various experiments were conducted, including saturation diving and whether it is possible for humans to live in underwater facilities for long periods of time.
- Starting with Sealab I, which was installed on the seabed at a depth of 58m off the coast of Bermuda in 1964 and was tested with the participation of four divers, Sealab II was produced in 1965.
- Sealab III was created four years later.
- A part of the Sealab II was refurbished and produced, and was lowered to a depth of 185m off the coast of San Clemente Island, California, but problems such as water leakage continued, and unfortunately the Sealab III was discarded. The program itself has ended.
[About the model]
- This is a plastic model assembly kit that reproduces Sealab III, the final form of Sealab, an underwater laboratory used by the U.S. Navy for experiments, on a 1/93 scale.
- Doll & Hobby will reproduce the phantom vintage kit, which was released by Aurora in 1970 and was never resold, with a completely new mold.
- Over 150 parts.
- Not only the unique appearance, but also the internal details and structure are carefully modeled.
- Clear parts are available for the exterior wall parts, so you can enjoy the recreated interior even after completion.
- Additionally, there is a set of diver figures that give you an idea of Sealab's size.
- In addition, the kit also includes a display base that reproduces the state of the ocean floor where Sealab III was installed.
- The name plate is also modeled to create a fun display after completion.
- This is a kit that allows you to understand the entirety of the valuable facilities produced by the US Navy.
