Product Description
A re-release of the Hiei from the Third Battle of the Solomon Islands with etched parts!
The product is based on the ship's appearance from after its renovation in 1940 until the Third Battle of the Solomon Islands.
The distinctive bridge shape, which served as the test bed for Yamato, is accurately recreated in three dimensions.
The curved shape of the bow reproduces the modification made to improve wave-cutting performance that was only done on the Hiei.
The bottom and hull parts are designed to be separated, allowing you to choose between an offshore model and a full hull model.
The molding color is gray, which reproduces the color of the Kure Arsenal, the wooden deck is light beige, the linoleum deck is dark brown, and the chimney top is black.
The stickers include tarpaulin for gun barrels with cutouts, warship parts, and emergency wood materials. The design allows you to easily express the colors of the fine details.
The stickers also include the Hinomaru anti-aircraft identification flag and the Vice Admiral's flag on the turret from the Battle of Midway (no cutouts).
Includes etched parts that can express fine details that are difficult to reproduce with injection parts.
Etched parts include handrails, steps, watertight doors, boat davits, flight deck, catapult, crane, attachments around the chimney, gangway, truss, loop antenna, etc.
Please note that the color of the actual product may differ from the image due to monitor and image resolution issues.
