## Description

With many revolutionary features incorporated into her design, the Yamato was completed in December 1941, and met her final fate at the hands of American Navy carrier aircraft in the South China Sea while on a one way mission to Okinawa. This model features minor modifications to Tamiya"s previous Yamato replicas Items 78002 and 78014, and has her looking as she did just prior to departing for her final mission, in an exquisite 1/350 scale assembly kit display model. The Yamato"s massive imposing silhouette is accurately reproduced, and both the main gun turrets and secondary armament turrets can be rotated even after assembly. ??Requires paint and assembly. ??Comes with display stand.

Review: exceptional kit - Wonderful product. Arrived quickly. Purchasing experience was outstanding. A fine addition to my battleship collection. I completed assembly, including some painting, in 10 hours spread over four days. The kit contains ample parts so if something breaks a replacement is on hand. Be patient: many of the parts are small, especially the anti-aircraft guns. It took special care to install them. All parts have good fit. This was one of the best models that I have built for its accurate fit. It's well worth the money....
Review: Fantastic - Great kit with lots of detail. Really enjoyed building it

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is actually required to make this model kit the way it is in the picture? I know I need all the tools and paint, but is anything else required?**
A: Hi Noah,It builds perfect out of the box but if you want to add some nice details I recommend replacing the barrels with turned brass or aluminum, and rails.  If you want to take it a step further - get a PE set as well and the wooden deck.It is time consuming (like any ship kit) but both Tamiya and Dragon kits are excellent design and engineered.Cheers!

**Q: Are the main artillery guns movable?**
A: Yes. you can configure the main guns to be movable

**Q: Is one can (100ml) of TS-66 enought for whole ship?**
A: Is enough.

**Q: What would be the measurements in cm?**
A: The 1/350 scale Tamiya is 75.1 cm in length and a beam of 11 cm.
