Titanic replica is 'GO'

[ukzz4iroc]

An Australian mining mogul is going to build a 100% scale model of the Titanic and will sail from Southampton to New York... Couldn't find out too much about it.

I would definitely want to look around it but not sure I could do the cruise across the Atlantic!

Would you take a ride? One last ride?....

To be built in China, so it'll sink quicker.

Couldn't find much about it? It was everywhere for a while.

Surely if its a 100% scale, it would be a replica rather than a model?

Presumably it's being made like an airfix model. Imagine the sprue.

LOL, sorry didn't realise the post was live and the replica/ model bit. Was in a hurry and quite excited

Indeed... This Aston was big enough!

If they were really going to do something different, they would make the "new Titanic" semi submersible, and have in "sink" on every voyage ;-)


(yup, massively insensitive to the original victims of the disaster, but a sure fire money spinner imo.............)

Don't think much of it. For one the flag is all wrong.
