Hasegawa 1:72 Scale North American B-25J Mitchell Model Kit
One of the standout features of this model kit is the level of detail in the parts. The panel lines are crisp and accurate, and the overall design of the kit captures the essence of the B-25J Mitchell aircraft perfectly. The kit also includes decals for multiple versions of the aircraft, allowing for customization and personalization.
In terms of pros, I appreciated the clear instructions that came with the kit, making assembly a smooth and enjoyable process. The parts fit together well, and the end result is a striking replica of the iconic B-25J Mitchell. The size of the model is ideal for display, not taking up too much space but still making a statement.
However, there are a few cons to consider. Some of the smaller parts were a bit delicate and required careful handling during assembly. Additionally, some modelers may find the small scale of the kit to be a bit challenging when it comes to painting and detailing.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Hasegawa 1:72 Scale North American B-25J Mitchell Model Kit to anyone looking for a high-quality and detailed model aircraft kit. The pros outweigh the cons, and the end result is a beautiful replica of a classic WWII bomber.

Hasegawa pretty well says it all. Detailed, good fits and perfect depiction of the famous Doolittle Bomber.

1/72スケールのB-25Jとしてはベストの存在ですが、非常に既視感のあるキットで、モノグラムの1/48キットとパーツ分割やモールドがソックリです。
このキットは実質モノグラムの筋彫りを凹にした、縮小コピーキットみたいです。
モノグラムと全く同じという訳でもないので、コピーというのは言い過ぎかも知れませんが、モノグラムのキットに大いに影響されたキットには間違いないでしょう。
プロポーションは良好で、ディテール再現もこのスケールでは必要充分、パーツの篏合も良好なので問題なく組み上がります。
テイルヘビーな機体なので、踏み台で機体を支える仕様ですが、機首の隙間に重りを仕込めば、何とか自立させる事も可能です。
マーキングは迷彩機二種、無塗装機一種が入っており、ノーズアートのプリントは別売りデカールに匹敵する程秀逸です。
箱絵の機体”JAUNTY JO”は、日本軍の高射砲で撃墜され、乗員も全員戦死した曰く付きの機体です。
1/72スケールのWWⅡ航空機をコレクションする上で、欠かせないキットだと言えるのでお薦めです。

Just as expected

The smaller the part, the more fragile it is. Was my first time doing this style of craft. Maybe it’s just not for me. But I’d recommend this historic plane for any history buff that loves model airplanes.

This is a Japanese-made model so the quality is superior. Loved it! It was received so quickly, too. Excellent service from the seller.
