1:36 Estonian War for Independence
6:18 WW2 Gear
14:12 More WW2 Gear
17:06 Hanger with Vehicles
At 19.24 it is a BMP 1 not BMP 2. BMP 1 has the smaller turret with the 73mm gun. BMP 2 has the longer 30mm auto cannon.
@@tasman006 Could be as I was going through the hanger fairly quickly and didn’t look at the vehicle info plaque. Thanks for informing
Wow, there is even lego diorama there?😱
yes was also pleasantly surprised to see one there. Thanks for watching
@@Rula2020 that’s very cool man👍🔥
Damn bro, its vey intresting and beatifull museum
there was a lot to see for sure. thanks man for checking out the museum video
Thanks for sharing with us 👍 fantastic museum
Thanks for checking out the video. And glad you’ve enjoyed the museum content!
Wow man incredible museum! Really interesting stuff there and the vehicles included where insane!! The only WW2 Soviet tank I've seen up close was an IS-2 in the polish war museum which was closed at the time but the tank was very close to the entrance. The Estonian war museum is definitely getting on my list for museums to visit abroad!
Wow IS-2 is one of favorite soviet tanks, real cool. And yes it was lot fun to check out. Mannequins in various military uniforms with weapons, vehicles and artillery definitely brought it all to life. One thing building this in lego another is to see it in person. Definitely a great overall experience and would for sure recommend to visit this museum in case you are ever in Tallinn, Estonia. I also really enjoyed Maritime museum that has a real submarine that you could climb inside. If I visit it again I ll make sure to take some footage there as well. Thanks for watching and commenting John:)
Cool video! It's good to differentiate what you add to your channel, videos like this one are a welcome addition. :) I'll have to go there when I visit Estonia!
Thanks man. I am glad to hear that this type of content is still interesting to some people on the channel, in addition to Lego stuff. I have some more plans to go to maritime museum that has real estonian submarine parked in. Always welcome to come to Estonia. If you ever make it to Tallinn just let me know.
@@Rula2020 Sure thing, I could use some advice as to what's worth visiting. :)
Great video my friend! Hearing our dialogues is quite funny xD
yes it was a fun trip! thanks for a great company.
Your English is fuckin great, I can never understand how foreigners get so good with English, I have been learning Italian for 5 years and still suck
thanks buddy. i used to study english from childhood as many in Europe and lived abroad for many years as well. I m sure you ll get good at italian soon. I tried learning french, but no big progress there so dont feel too bad :) And its the best when you surround yourself in the culture and language, something might not be always easy to do
I wish my German friend would have paid attention in English class so I could actually speak to her. But yeah I'm quite amazed that a lot of foreigners speak English better than people in English-speaking countries. I'm American and you're all welcome for the equipment.
@@PaladinThomas 😄 yeah mostly in Europe english is must nowadays.
And yeah big thanks for the support through out the years and even now for having our back🫡🇺🇸
@@Rula2020 that's why God helped found the United States, so we can help fellow Christians.
I visited the Eesti Sojamuuseum two years ago and I liked it a lot. Much better than our main military museum in Helsinki.
This one was sure a lot of fun to check out especially with all weapon displays and vehicles. It was interesting for me to learn after that many vehicles displayed were donated by Finland 🇫🇮, my favorite being Stug 3 and ZSU, so big thanks for that.
Nice museum. Terrängbil means terrain car. Bil is car.
Really cool to know. thanks for the input. Its definite a cool looking off-road Swedish armored car
I learned a lot today with this video! Next time someone asks me about the history of Estonia, I can confidently say: It's complicated! ;)
haha it is definitely true. But I m sure glad things worked out as it did as I get to enjoy living in free Estonia now
@@Rula2020 I am very glad that your ancestors never gave up and that Estonia is now an independent nation again.
Estonia or as the rest of NATO calls it - First Line of Defense.
Just kidding, but unfortunately the geopolitical situation leaves little room for humor these days...
well maybe we ll talk some other day about my ancestry:) but yes agreed 💯
And hey NATO is just being realistic here, but still super happy that there is someone to back us up in case things go south or should I say west.
“just like the simulations”
tere, tere, good esto poster!...I haven't been to that museum but have seen the kgb and the big airport museums when I have been visiting family...on go and well be, good estipoika!
Tere 👋 Those are great museums choices to visit. But I recommend for sure to still go to Estonian War Museum and Maritime museum as Maritime one has a real submarine you could climb inside. Those two are my favorites. Welcome back to Estonia any time!
Superb work Sir .... Always enjoy seeing something unusual like this 😊
Thank you kind sir. I m sure glad to hear that you have enjoyed watching this video:)
Great ,thnks for the footage tour 🍻☀️
It was a lot of fun myself so definitely a pleasure. cheers!
Thank you. I enjoyed the video. By the way, I believe my Great Grandfather was born in Estonia. Cheers 🍻
Glad you did and big thanks for watching. And thats awesome that you have some Estonian dna in you 🤜🤛 always welcome to Estonia! Cheers
19:45 zsu has 🇫🇮Ps number and camo paint, BMP -1, and Stug had Fin Army paint on them .
yes those all seem to be donated to the museum by our good neighbors from the north:) 🇫🇮 🤝
Nice! thank you.
Thank you for watching:)
Great video. If I ever go to visit Estonia I can already tell that I'll need to set aside an entire day to spend going through that museum. Their weapons collection is fantastic .
I was glad the other gentlemen who were visiting the museum were having a conversation in English so I could understand it. They were actually discussing some pretty interesting things. I enjoyed listening in. 👍😀
Thanks :) glad to hear you have enjoyed this museum walkthrough and our conversation 😀 I would definitely recommend visiting this museum and spending more time exploring as went through everything fairly quickly.
I would also highly recommend Estonian Maritime Museum as it has a real submarine which can be climbed inside and many more nautica themed items & ships. Definitely one of my favorites. Always welcome to visit Estonia anytime:)
I Love small museums, more intimate!
yes 💯, especially in Estonia. This was recorded on Saturday and there were barely any people around.
Estonia Is like The Perfect medium Blend of Germania, Russia and Norseland
Almost like She’s in the Center of Them
Beautiful Nation
Not Perfect; but so Comfortable
Thank You for This Good Work My Great Man
Thank you for your kind words. I agree, Estonia is definitely a mix of different cultures in some aspect, but Estonians also tried to preserve their own sense of self identity through various turbulent historical periods.
And I ll have also agree, it’s really beautiful and peaceful here, even in the “big” city such as Tallinn. Always welcome to visit!
The estonian and latvian ss divisions fought well and the british let alot of them settle in britain instead of returning to soviet occupied lands
They should consider being extremely lucky, especially considering those being SS guys. Many of the German POWs captured by soviets have never returned home, by being worked to death in soviet gulags / work camps.
Brit’s are allways so Jolly
Yeah wow im surprised to meet someone else who knows this, my great grandad settled in Britain after the war, he was in the Latvian Legion
This was a really interesting watch. Im english so not really familiar with Estonia in general. I'll be going to bed slightly more educated now 😁
I am glad to hear that you found this video somewhat interesting. And as someone else commented on this video they have learned one things about Estonian history - that its complicated.
And always welcome to visit Estonia and see things for yourself. We have a beautiful historical old town in Tallinn and many more cool things to see!
Nice museum.
it sure was a great experience
I'm looking very much forward to watch this video! By the way Rula, did you pull the trigger on the new BKM Jagdpanther?
Thanks Hooky, apparently I took a lot footage of the museum so a bit a long video here, but it was a quite interesting to see everything in person, not just in lego form :D
Unfortunately I will be skipping on bkm Jagdpanther and Hungarian Tiger 1 although those are beautiful kits. Just something not in the budget and also I am pretty happy with stug 3 for now.
@@Rula2020 The Hungarian Tiger 1 is an odd one! On the one hand this kit comes very close to the Tiger 1 of my dreams and then again the Hungarian side of things makes it kind of special interest. I very much like that BKM gives the Hungarian army a moment of recognition with this set but I personally would rather buy a cheaper Hungarian Turan tank with an Hungarian tanker instead of the Tiger 1 that was only very briefly in Hungarian service. I'm kind of hoping that BKM does a Michael Wittmann Tiger 1 tank at some point in the future. I mean, they did several versions of their Panzer IV, maybe they will do it with the Tiger 1 also. Anyway, I really would like to buy the Hungarian Tiger 1 but with the hefty price it was a either or decision and so I went for the Jagdpanther. Unfortunately the Marder III "Kohlenklau" will also have to wait a little longer...
@@Rula2020 Did you guys discuss the Italian Telo mimetico camouflage pattern at around 7:25? I love the Telo Mimetico, it's my favorite camouflage pattern at the moment. :)
@hookybrickshooky9529 yeah this one is pretty awesome. And this exactly what we were discussing, or should I say I was more educated on it:D The discussion started of me wondering whether telo mimetico ever used in the eastern front and when it was used mostly. And it seems as I got my answers. I might get a couple of those camo figs from the tmc reseller.
Nice choice with Jagdpanther it sure is a beautifully made kit. And this one of those that I also dont have in my lineup 🤔 as much I would like to add this one I must know when to hit those breaks cs bkm always will have something nice released ever month. I think I might go for something smaller as rommel staff car or Wespe as i love my sale:D
I agree on Hungarian Tiger being a special interest kit, but Hungarians / Bulgarians & romanians were part axis forces so it good to see those as well. I really liked the print camo on the Tiger but like you said price tag and the fact that I have already Tiger 131 was pass for me.
Finnish army tank camo?
the Stug 3 was a German assault gun used by Finns during ww2 and then donated to the museum. I am not sure if there was anything else there from Finland that I could’ve missed.
Bmp-2 and Zsu has Finnish army markings also Ps + numbers
@@infernalstormrider oh I didnt know that, sooo cool. Thanks for this extra bit of detail. I guess those were also donated from Finland 🇫🇮
@@Rula2020 bmp 2 is still in active service in Finnish army . But modern and dated version , better nightvision and so on
@infernalstormrider okay, interesting to know. I was aware that many eastern european countries had or even still have some soviet equipment in service, including Estonia.but was not aware that Finland also had some. Learned something new
General’s nice Office. maybe Laidoneer, Commander of Est. Military-later sent for eternal vocation to Moscow 😢
I couldn’t remember Generals name in the video, and yes unfortunately he was deported to never return as many other estonian servicemen that were sent to gulags.
Is this close to Tallinn?
yes it is. It is in the near by city called Viimsi. There is a public bus #1 thats goes there from a Tallinn city center to the museum. Its about 20-30 minutes bus ride but its really scenic with views on the Baltic sea
Your English is good
Thanks buddy. I used to live abroad for some time.
6:54 I guess 3 Estonian ”brother’S” one ordered to join Red Army, other 🇫🇮 InfReg 200 (JR200/ Estonia) volunteer, third drafted to German Service.
okay, so I thought correctly then. I was almost certain the middle guy was wearing Finnish uniform, so big thanks for confirming that.
19:19 Thats a BMP 1
maybe, for many I was moving / recording real fast to look at name plaque or description
And it is BMP-1 you are correct ✅
There's another Estonian RUclipsr I've watched I want to say being in the military is like a mandatory thing when you hit 18. Kind of like Switzerland, at least it used to be.
That is correct. Military service in Estonia is mandatory for all healthy adults, but now it’s not as long as used to be in past. its around 9 months only (depending on your position).
@@Rula2020 thanks Rula, you're cool.
@@PaladinThomas appreciate the kind words 🙏
