I built this U-boat thats in 1/72 and added three crew men.

Full view. This is about three feet long. Image if K&C did one it would probably been seven feet long.

That's one cool U-Boat! I have noticed that there are kits out there for a 1/72nd U-Boat, as well as that monster 1/32nd scale one by Andrea. These look very interesting but 1) no money and 2) where would I ever put it?

I understand that there should be a 1/72nd US "Gato" class kit coming in 2006

Alex: Is the sub the Revell model? Looks great. Is the hull one piece? I see some new 72 scale ships coming out. Leadmen

Yes, its the Revell model and its a two piece hull. It was very easy to build. The figures are from CMK because the sub didn't have any figures. Hobby Lobby has 1/2 price off sales so I paid $35 instead of $70.
