Occre

[Consitution]

Looks like Occre is unveiling a new kit April 15th and it would appear to be polar exploration based

I received an email showing the same background info so who knows what is next, not a lot of ships that would have worked polar exploration.

 

[Consitution]

There are quite a few Just recently Occre released the Endurance
the James Caird from the Endurance was also released
also when Constructo went out of business they had the Fram in there range.

maybe it’s a ship from the Shackleton or Scott era

I got the email the other day also. I'm guessing the Erebus, maybe.

I think that is a very good guess
they already have the Terror in their kits

 

[James S]

That's exactly why I was thinking Erebus, if that's the case, both ships from the Franklin Expedition will be done.

But the Erebus was more or less identical to the Terror
she had only some differenbces in the position of bowsprit and the location and size of the hatches.
This would be very easy to adjust for Occre, but I have my doubts, that they would sell much more kits - and it would be a little bit boring, or?

That’s very true but in the Occre range you have the Polaris whis was modified by Shackleton to become the endurance

My guess would also be the Fram, but I'd love to see the USS Advance (1847).

 

[Lorenzo]

Maybe Scott's Discovery

For the presentation they use gothic font.
Will it be a clue?

I was hoping that Occre would take on the Constructo Fram
as Constructo are not in business any more

new info

"His mission was of great importance, but its details were kept secret to prevent them from being discovered by the country's enemies.

During his journey, he faced countless dangers and challenges. Violent storms and strange creatures were lurking around him. Despite these obstacles, he pressed on, determined to fulfill his mission."

 

[James S]

It's the Erebus.

 

[Consitution]

That’s great

 

[James S]

It's so awesome. Just saw it on their youtube channel.

It looks amazing

 

[James S]

Boy, does it ever look amazing. Now they will have done both ships of the Franklin Expedition.

 

[Consitution]

I have the Terror in my stash and I will definitely get the Erebus

 

[OllieS]

Its the same price and size as the Terror, which was almost identical in life, but described as single planking high difficulty. The Terror is double planking medium difficulty. The instructions are not yet available to download.
