Siku 1726 TUI Mein Schiff 1 cruise ship

TUI itself has already had this model on sale last year as an advertising model. So it was to be expected that this model would also be included in the range as a standard model. It will expand the fleet with "Mein Schiff 3" which is available under number 1724 and I actually expect that "Mein Schiff 2" and "Mein Schiff 4" will also be released. All four models in order of numbering are as follows:

Mein Schiff 1 Mein Schiff 2 Mein Schiff 3 Mein Schiff 4

To a layman they are almost identical ships, and I am such a layman. But I have been told that the decks and the superstructure show great differences. That could be an extra swimming pool or an extra set of sloops etc. In itself I can write a nice article about that soon and make nice detailed shots for it. They are all attached to a pedestal on which they can be seen nicely. The pedestal itself is the bottom for the display case so that it all has even more appeal. When the first ships were released in this series I was very surprised because it does not fit Siku at all. In the past they have released boats and canoes, but a complete cruise ship had never been presented. And there is simply a market for them, because they are sold very well. The following have already been released in this series:

1720 AIDALuna Cruiseliner
1723 Queen Mary II
1724 TUI Mein Schiff 3
1726 TUI Mein Schiff 1
