Davaoeno 38,588 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I prefer the original myself. It looked very authentic. Now it looks like it has a couple of long cigar tubes or torpedos hanging off the sides. Just my opinion 1 Link to post Share on other sites

Mr. Mike 10,449 Posted October 18, 2014 Share Posted October 18, 2014 (edited) http://seagifts.com/caabshumobok.html I built the Calypso about fifteen years ago, sailed beautifully. I keep it in a glass case. I built a Gato class submarine as well, I'll see if I can find a picture of it. It looked like this. I am now building a Uboat. Fun topic by the way!
