My box has "Revell 1974, 1976" on the side and a UPC code, but the instruction sheet has 1987 on it. Does that affect the timeline or do we just say 1976 model with 1987 instruction sheet"?

Yes, the 74 kit added sails. I found a video review and took a screenshot of the box. It is definitely different than the 76. The tell is the little liberty bell above the Revell badge on the top. Also, the 74 included a little ship's history booklet. I suspect I have a kit from the 87 timeframe, but no different than the 76 kit, except they had to print more instruction sheets and updated the date on the sheet. I have added the 74 and will add the latest release (2014) with completely rewritten build and rigging instructions based on the years of customer calls to their hotline.

Hello, in 1986 Revell, Monogram merged under new ownership. ( Revell-Monogram 1986-2007 ) All of Revell assets were moved from Venice California to Des Plaines Illinois, then closed the Venice plant. 1987 Revell-Monogram Rekit #0398 (Revell H-398) is made in Ill. Not in Cal. Even though the box lid side Venice Cal. and Kit #H-398 say different. On 1987 instruction sheets printed to the top left Kit #0398, across to the right made in Ill. At this time still made in USA. On the Inside and bottom ends you will find 0398-XXXX perforated in the box.
