General Jim’s 2-in-1 German Bismarck & Tirpitz Battleship Building Block Set – 1/350 Scale, 75.2 cm
Recreate two of the most formidable warships ever to sail the seas with the General Jim’s 2-in-1 Bismarck & Tirpitz Battleship Building Block Set. Built at an impressive 1/350 scale and measuring 75.2 cm (29.6") in length, this advanced model lets you construct either the German battleship Bismarck or her sister ship, Tirpitz—the only two vessels of the Bismarck-class ever built.
These ships were the pinnacle of German naval engineering during the early years of WWII. Laid down between 1936–1939, both vessels displaced over 41,000 tons (standard) and more than 50,000 tons fully loaded. Armed with eight powerful 38 cm (15-inch) SK C/34 guns housed in four twin turrets and protected by armor belts up to 320 mm thick, they were among the most heavily armed and armored battleships of their era. With a designed top speed of about 30 knots, the Bismarck-class combined firepower, protection, and speed in a way few other warships of the time could match.
Famous for her dramatic breakout into the Atlantic and the sinking of HMS Hood, Bismarck became the target of one of the largest naval hunts in history before being sunk in May 1941. Tirpitz, known as the “Lonely Queen of the North,” spent most of her service threatening Allied convoys from Norway before being sunk by British bombers in 1944. Despite their limited operational use, the Bismarck-class battleships remain iconic symbols of German naval ambition during WWII.
This building set captures that history with meticulous brick-built detailing—from the massive main guns to rangefinders, cranes, lifeboats, superstructure components, and more. Whether you choose to build Bismarck or Tirpitz, the finished model stands proudly on a sturdy display base with a printed nameplate.
A centerpiece for collectors, WWII history enthusiasts, and master builders.
