Shizuoka Hobby Show 2009: Fine Molds Highlights
Fine Molds
Famed for its fine military kits such as tanks and aircraft, and its SF kits for "Star Wars," "Porco Rosso," and more, Fine Molds was on hand with new kits to debut...including one for a unique new genre...!
A secret revealed at the show, this kit depicts the last tank of the Imperial Japanese Army.
Its long body is one of its distinctive features.
Workable link tracks, fully detailed 75mm and 37mm guns, separately available metal barrels...and it's coming in July!
Also planned for July release is the Snow Speeder from "Star Wars," in 1/48 scale.
Although the parts were not on display, their plans were, and look to make for a relatively easy build.
And Now For Something Completely Different: a kit of a die-tooling machine used in plastic model production!
Although this kit's release is slated for next month, lucky members of the public got to buy it at the show!
