Product introduction Photo-etched parts and wooden deck stickers are included for Chibimaru Fuso! Battleship Fuso was the first Fuso-class ship owned by the Japanese Navy, following the Kongo-class, and was completed in 1919.Both displacement and main gun were among the largest in the world at the time, and she underwent two renovations before entering the Pacific War.The ship's distinctive features, such as the unbalanced shape of the bridge, a sea reconnaissance aircraft suitable for modern warfare, and the installation of an electric probe, are eye-catching.In October 1945, towards the end of the war, she entered the Surigao Strait at night as part of Operation Sho-ichi to defend the Philippines, and was killed in a gunfight with US surface forces.The product is based on the motif of the Battleship Fuso, the last battle in the Leyte Gulf, and is finished in a style that condenses its reduced and deformed shape characteristics.◆Characteristic parts seen on real ships have been made into three-dimensional figures.-The hull has a one-piece structure with the left and right sides integrated using a slide mold, reproducing the stubby shape that is characteristic of battleships.-The bridge is a stacked type, accurately expressing the unbalanced external shape.Like the actual ship, it has a shape that allows you to see the pillars inserted, and is densely equipped with equipment such as high-angle guns.The top part accurately incorporates the shape of the end of the war, equipped with an electric probe.-The anchor is made into separate parts to give it a unique shape, and the porthole is realistically expressed, including the eaves.-The stern aviation work deck is a reproduction of the linoleum holding metal fittings by carving.-The 36cm main gun, 15cm secondary gun, and 12.7cm high-angle gun have their muzzles opened using slide molds to create realistic gun barrels.- The main gun parts are made differently depending on whether a range finder and additional machine gun are installed.-You can also change the rotation angle of the main gun.◆A deformed carrier-based aircraft is included just like the ship.-The carrier-based aircraft includes the Type 95 water reconnaissance aircraft, and markings such as the Japanese flag are expressed with the included stickers.-The molding color is dark green and one unit is included.◆Special photo-etched parts are included to replace and refine molded parts that are difficult to reproduce with injection parts! *Painting is required as it is unpainted and uncolored.- Photo-etched parts size is 88x87mm - Contains outfitting items that are impossible with plastic parts, such as general handrails on the side, and catapults with frame-like structures.- Contains replacement parts such as the bridge window frame, direction finding antenna, and radio antenna support.- Contains additional parts such as the stern signal light, 25mm machine gun sight, bulletproof plate, etc.◆Comes with a wooden deck sticker that allows you to realistically and easily express color tones and surface textures that are difficult to reproduce with paint! - The external and internal shapes have been laser-cut to match the parts.•Since the back side has glue, you can simply stick it on, so you can easily recreate a realistic wooden deck.◆Some designs that are hidden by pasting can be re-expressed by etching and overlaying.- The molded parts are made of color plastic in the color of warships and ship bottoms.-Since the design is divided into the hull and bottom, you can choose between two types: offshore/full hull.Molded parts are composed of three colors.Number of assembly parts: 132 [Included contents] - Runner x11 - Seal x2 - Photo-etched parts x2 - Wooden deck seal x1 - Assembly manual x3 *This product is made in Japan.*This product is a plastic model kit that requires assembly.Safety warning None
