Billing Boats - 1:12 Scale African Queen - Plastic hullDespite its modest size and appearance, the African Queen is one of the vessels which has become most vividly engraved on the minds of many people throughout the world. The African Queen achieved its frame as one of the main characters in a film of the same name. The movie also featured Katharine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart, who in the filmed version of C. S. Forrester's work, play a British missionary and an alcoholic engineer living in Tanzania

Despite its modest size and appearance, the African Queen is one of the vessels which has become most vividly engraved on the minds of many people throughout the world. 

The African Queen achieved its frame as one of the main characters in a film of the same name. The movie also featured Katharine Hepburn and Humphrey Bogart, who in the filmed version of C.S. Forrester's work, play a British missionary and an alcoholic engineer living in Tanzania during World War 1.

While sailing on one of the many jungle rivers, the couple become involved in a number of emotional incidents ending, of course, in romance. As the movie closes, the couple - totally exhausted and in a perilous storm - are driven into Lake Victoria, where the African Queen hits the German Warship 'Königin Luise', causing it to explode and sink. 

The ship used for the on location shooting in Uganda was built in about 1910. After a stormy life, the boat was brought to Florida, where its present owner, Mr. Jim Hendrich, uses the renovated ship as a pleasure craft.

Smaller than pictured
Color: Mixed, Size: Medium, Color: Mixed, Size: Medium
It’s a lot smaller than pictured and I have the same dog type as was depicted in the one of the pictures. The dog like it so I guess that’s good. I will not be playing tug of war with him using this. I like my fingers thank you very much. I would say it durable. He destroys most toys in minutes. He did destroy the squeaky part in about 10 minutes so bonus points for that.

Not for aggressive chewers. But still a good product.
Color: Mixed, Size: Medium
Cute toy, my dog was obsessed with it, but within like 1-3 days I couldn’t put any treats in the places for it as my aggressive chewer dog destroyed it within a day or so haha. But she still loves it and just chews on it for fun. Doesn’t last long with aggressive chewers if you’re looking to put treats and such in it like I did. But again that part may be broken and she still chews on it so not too bad!

She sat still and licked peanut butter. I clipped nails!! "FINALLY" 😃😄
Color: Mixed, Size: Medium, Color: Mixed, Size: Medium
I have a Belgian Malanois who WILL NOT let me clip her nails. I got this a little bit of peanut butter in the places you can put it under the bottom in little compartments like which she sits and trys to lick it all out of every little cranny and while doing that, BOOM nails clipped and filed. Great product and worked exactly as I needed. Highly suggest if ya need the fur baby to sit still while you brush alor clip whatever you need, it works and if it works for my Dog a Belgian Malanois-look them up-it will def work for yours!!!! Oh yeah another great thing is it's nearly indestructible. I say nearly because she will prove me wrong if I say it is completely indestructible. Good buy. I suggest it for sure.

If your pet chews a lot do not buy. My dog chewed the plastic and cut her nose when grabbing the toy because of how sharp it became.
