The perfect companion for your KMS Bismarck and HMS Hood model kit. Just imagine displaying these authentic badges with your model kit.

In an effort to further enhance the modeler's Bismarck and Hood models, LionRoar is offering a box set of these famous warships' badges.
The badges measure on average 2 inches tall and are very accurate replicas of the badges of the HMS Hood and the KMS Bismarck.

Details of the badges:

The Hood

"The Hood badge is based on the arms of Lord Samuel Hood Clan. It features a Cornish Chough proper holding a gold anchor bend sinister in its dexter foot, over an azure (blue) field. Beneath the bird and anchor is the figure “1859”. The sealed pattern for the badge was officially approved on 06 September 1919. The Cornish Chough is an endangered member of the crow family. In heraldry it is most commonly associated with Cornwall (which is where 1st Lord Hood was from). The anchor symbolizes both hope and naval service."

The Bismarck

"The Bismarck badge is based on part of the heraldry of Bismarck clan. It features Trefoil and oak Tree Leaves in the middle of azure (blue) Bordure (shield). In heraldry, Trefoil symbolizes Perpetuity, longevity and confidence, and Oak Tree Leaves symbolizes Antiquity and Strength."

The set is available from DragonUSA for $34.95.
