1/700: Special 27EX-1 - Japanese Navy Heavy Cruiser Suzuya (With Etched Parts) (Plastic Model) [Fujimi]

Japanese Original Edition, Plastic Model Kit, Brand New 

The Japanese Navy Heavy Cruiser Suzuya joins Fujimi’s 1/700 Special Series as a detailed plastic model kit, complete with etched parts for enhanced realism. This version recreates the vessel’s appearance in October 1944 during the Leyte Gulf Battle, featuring the distinct hull cross-section unique to Suzuya compared to her Mogami-class sisters Mogami and Mikuma. Dedicated parts accurately depict the wartime upgrades, including additional anti-aircraft guns and radar equipment. The kit also includes two Type Zero (three-seat) reconnaissance seaplanes and one Type Zero observation seaplane, along with decals for naval and national flags and aircraft markings. 

Packed with fine detailing, the included etched parts cover ladders, handrails, cranes, searchlight platforms, catapults, boat davits, aerial supports, and aircraft handling rails—features difficult to achieve with injection molding alone. The set comes with a mini paper craft storage box for keeping the packaging after assembly, and an instruction manual that doubles as a mini guide to the ship’s equipment and history. A must-have for ship model enthusiasts looking to combine historical accuracy with premium craftsmanship.
