Chibimaru Fleet TK30: Fuso (Plastic Model) [Fujimi]

Japanese Original Edition, Plastic Model Kit, Brand New

The Chibimaru Fleet TK30: Fuso brings back the iconic Japanese battleship in a compact and charming deformed style. This palm-sized plastic model kit is snap-fit and multicolored, requiring no glue or paint, making it accessible for both beginners and experienced builders. It’s modeled after the Fuso during the Battle of Leyte Gulf, with exaggerated proportions that still preserve key structural details.

The hull features pre-colored parts in warship gray and hull red, and its split design allows for both full-hull and waterline display options. Details like the distinctively bulky hull, wooden and linoleum deck textures, radar on the bridge, and carefully sculpted anchors, rails, and catapult deck have all been faithfully recreated. The ship’s main, secondary, and anti-air guns feature open barrels thanks to slide mold technology, and the main turrets can rotate.

The kit also includes a deformed Type 95 floatplane in dark green, complete with stickers for realistic markings like the Hinomaru. With its fun proportions and thoughtful detailing, this model offers a playful yet accurate tribute to one of the Imperial Japanese Navy’s most unique battleships.
