1/72 JGSDF Type 90 Main Battle Tank w/Unit Decal

Description

This is an injection-plastic military vehicle model kit.

Pit Road has been collaborating with Trumpeter and this time they have produced post-war Japanese MBTs in 1/72 scale. These are the first injection model kits produced accurately in this scale (the ones from Fujimi were a little bit smaller — 1/76 scale). These kits benefit from today’s sophisticated computer-assisted design and machining. Every part is tooled like an accurate reduction of the 1/35 scale kit. Great care will be required when cutting the tiny, thin parts from the gates on the sprue. The third in the series is Type 90 MBT, the core of the JGSDF tank force. Each of the suspension arms are injected separately. Several optional parts like the exhaust covers and fording equipment are prepared for the modeler’s choice. The 120mm gun barrel is molded in one piece with an opened muzzle. One decal sheet with a variety of colorful insignias is included. Tracks are rubber belt type. Two figures are included. This release includes extra JGSDF unit markings. Includes exploded-view pictorial-type instructions, with some notes in English and Japanese.
