marky sparky Posted August 12, 2020 Share Posted August 12, 2020 Does it come with any figures, it would give it a sense of scale more. Cool looking kit subject though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fujimi does the turrets and the complete citadel (in three separate kits - bridge, funnel area, secondary armament) in 1/200; that would be quite huge if laid out as they were on the ship. https://www.scalemates.com/kits/fujimi-02040-battleship-yamato-central-structure--1208533 https://www.scalemates.com/kits/fujimi-02034-battleship-yamato-bridge--1165709 https://www.scalemates.com/kits/fujimi-02041-battleship-yamato-central-structure-outlying-facilities--1227267 https://www.scalemates.com/kits/fujimi-02036-battleship-yamato-type-94-46cm-triplex-mount-main-gun-turret--1154899 A 1/72 Yamato would be 12 feet (3.64 meters) long! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cool looking kit subject though it does not seem too, revell do some 1/72nd Kriegsmarine figures that may suit . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There appears to be a measurement in the second pic, half a meter form the rear of the base to the muzzles. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In 1/72 its got to be impressive. 50cm length overall. Interesting choice of subject to be sure. Takom have a flair for being imaginative. Cannot help thinking though that this will be, in the absence of any internals etc, a fairly simple model? Not that it really matters though! Look good next to my ModelCollect 1/72 P15000 Ratte Landkreuzer! 😊 Allan Edited August 14, 2020 by Albeback52 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phil Gollin Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 . I would expect that in a year or so there will be a full turret truck version with transparent sides. . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
