Hi All Had this in the stash for a while and thinks its time to get it moving, this is the original full interior kit and not the latest version that no longer has that option. The kit is in MFH's usual sturdy packaging and opens out to see the large instruction sheet and below the parts.The hull is a resin casting that shows off the correct construction of the hull and has a removable side to access the interior. Five bags of cast white metal parts that include the guns, barbets superstructure and internal parts. A small box contains the printed mast, bridge, funnel, aircraft and other small parts. Next its the etch several sheets of pristine etch including the deck and the wooden deck decal. Overall a super detailed model of the super battleship that should be a dream to build. I have also bought Eduards etch IJN crew set I wont be using them all but may add a few to give scale. Link here to the MFH Yamato page with loads more pictures of the ship and kit contents:- http://www.modelfactoryh...om/new/en/archives/6634

Very interested to see this come together its a very detailed kit from what I have seen on the net, and like rocking horse poo to find now. Am I right in thinking the scale is 1:700, a proper challenge this on I think looking forward to seeing it underway Jase “Whenever you find yourself on the side of the majority, it is time to pause and reflect.” -Mark Twain

The amount of detail at this scale should make for a challenging build. Looking forward to see it coming together.

Was anticipating you needing several visits to Spec Savers after building this one. Good luck and happy building. Regards delboy271155 (Derek) COME BACK GUY FAWKES "YOUR COUNTRY NEEDS YOU"
