Description

This is a magazine about general modeling subjects.

Model Graphix is Japan's most well-rounded hobby magazine, full of articles on all modeling genres including aircraft, figures, science fiction, cars, ships, and more. Excellent photography throughout. All text is in Japanese.

This month's issue is part two of a two-part special that includes a beautiful 1/72-scale A6M2 Type 21 Zero Fighter plastic model kit! This issue includes the wings and other details, with the previous issue containing the fuselage and cockpit parts. The instructions for each phase of assembly are included in the appropriate issue.

This model is undoubtedly the finest offering of the Zero in 1/72 scale, with exquisite and authentic detail throughout. Flaps and ailerons are molded separately, as are the cowl flaps (your choice of open or closed!). The canopy is offered as either a one-piece closed affair or a three-piece assembly to build it in the open position. The excellent detail of the cockpit almost demands an open canopy! The engine and landing gear feature fantastic details, and the kit will include optional parts for the propeller's spinner, wing gun ports, and underwing gun access panels. Markings are included for three versions: famed Zero ace Saburo Sakai's V-103 aircraft, Tetsuzo Iwamoto's EII-I02 aircraft based on the IJN aircraft carrier Zuikaku, and an aircraft from the 263rd Squadron.

This excellent Zero kit from Fine Molds will only be offered as a premium with these two issues of Model Graphix, and will not be offered alone as a separate kit. (If you'd like to get the complete kit, be sure to check out our offering of a set of both issues of Model Graphix with both halves of the kit, for only 2600 yen!) Act fast, because when they're gone, they're gone!
