These are VERY nice little ships! Not built any…a future project, maybe?
But, for those seeking to extend their fleet…as you have probably guessed, the 'Mystery' Galleon and 'Black Pearl' are pretty much just re-boxes for marketing.
The Galleon looks VERY like the 'Revenge', from the Box pics, although I have not opened either.
The 'Black Pearl' seem to be the 'Black Swan' with a different. base name plate. Could be wrong…just a cursory look…but maybe go for the cheaper, (I got these from Russia!), sources for the more easily available kits.
At least, in the 'Black Pearl', the hull is the normal brown and sails, white…think the galleon will be the same.
It is POSSIBLE that there may be some detail changes but the overall feel is of reboxed models, rather than 'new' ships. |

is a big fan of the Age of Sail, and these ships really speak to him - he loves transitional eras, and the Anglo-Dutch Wars was one of those.
