Top Three Limited Edition Model Sets All Hobbyists Should Have

For those of us who are immersed in the world of model building, nothing is more exciting than the release of new kits and products. Well, the release of limited edition sets may be a bit more exciting, but that’s all part of the fun of the hobby of model building.

Model building enthusiasts typically stick to one type of building material, collecting and completing sets that are similar in structural components. One of the most popular model products is contracted using a COBI building block system. Let’s take a look at the top three limited edition COBI building block model sets all hobbyists and beginners should have in their collections.

Limited Edition R.M.S. Titanic Ocean Liner

No model collection would be complete without the Titanic. This iconic ocean liner sailed to its doom on its maiden voyage in 1912 and has since become the stuff of legend. Many model hobbyists consider their collection incomplete without the Titanic, as it is one of the most famous maritime disasters.

COBI building blocks limited edition R.M.S. Titanic reaches 25 inches when entirely constructed and consists of 1,100 blocks. Beautifully detailed, this model reproduces to scale the shape and body of the Titanic, inspiring all who build her.

Panzer IV Ausf. G Limited Edition

Every model hobbyist collects war vehicles and COBI’s Panzerkampfwagen IV Ausf. G limited edition set is the best in its class. The unique set contains five mini-soldier figures, a palm tree, and brick barbed wire. Not only is this extensive set a limited edition, but it comes with a laser-etched black plate detailing its limited-edition number and the vehicle name.

For further authentication, the COBI building block Panzer IV Ausf. G limited edition set has a signed certificate included. This set contains 608 high-quality building blocks that are faithfully rendered in World War II, bricking covered with prints that don’t smear or scratch, adding to its quality.

Limited Edition Fokker Dr. 1 Red Baron

Perhaps the most well-known plane of all time, the Red Baron is the most recognizable aircraft from WWI. A German fighter plane, the Fokker Dr. 1, was incredibly maneuverable and a marvel of its time. Manfred von Richthofen famously piloted the aircraft and was hailed as a true ace of aviation during the war.

COBI’s building block model limited edition Fokker Dr. 1 Red Baron is thoughtfully constructed of materials hardy enough to be played with when the set is completed. This model has a movable propeller, wing ailerons, and wheels, perfectly recreated with historical markings and stickers.
