TAMIYA 78031 Musashi (2013) 1:350 Ship Model Kit

Description

1/350 Scale Ships
78031
Japanese Battleship Musashi

The Musashi was the second ship in the Yamato-class which were the largest battleships ever built. Completed in 1942, the Musashi took part in various campaigns before finally meeting her fate at the hands of U.S. Navy aircraft in the Battle of Leyte Gulf. Tamiya's precision-made assembly kit model recreates this giant battleship in exquisite detail, including her defensive anti-aircraft suite of numerous single 25mm cannons on the main deck. This different anti-aircraft armament makes for an interesting comparison with the Yamato. Tamiya rereleased Musashi in 1981 and this great model kit is available again with new mast parts.

This 1/350 scale series offers an excellent way to experience the magnificent grandeur of these famous warships. In addition to their accurate proportions, these models also offer realistic

details such as bridge areas and deck surfaces, as well as precision made parts such as masts and ant-aircraft weapons.

As with all Tamiya items, instructions are clear and concise, which allows the modeller to build a model with relative ease.

Paint and the required modelling glue for these kits is available separately.
