[About the actual vehicle]
The Japanese Navy was developed under the cooperation of the Army as one of the equipment of the army squadron in World War II, and equipped with an amphibious tank specialty It is an expression boat (kami).
The base is the Army Type 95 Light Tank, which has a fully welded structure and a hatch equipped with a rubber seal.
The turret uses the turret of a Type 2 tank. The main gun was equipped with a set of 37mm tank guns.
Equipped with detachable floats on the front and rear of the vehicle to obtain buoyancy. The front float had an integrated early model and a left-right split late model.
The float was removed after landing and continued to advance as a regular tank. After being formalized in 1942, it produced about 180 cars by the end of the war.
Introduced for the first time in combat in Saipan, it was used not only in southern areas such as New Guinea, but also in the northern Kurile Naval garrison of the Kuril Islands as a northern defense.

The model is a 1/72 scale, approximately 10 cm in length, an amphibious tank of the Japanese Navy, and a fully assembled model that reproduces a special type 2 internal fire boat (kami) with a float.
The unique style of this model is not only a distinctive float, but also a late model, and a set of canning tower parts attached to the cupola when sailing on the water.
The unique style is full of feeling even in the palm size, and I look forward to the difference in expression depending on the viewing angle.
The details of the surface, such as the floats and the welding marks on each part of the body, are reproduced with delicate detail, and the sense of weight is also transmitted. In addition, the paint is also stained and dry brushed for a realistic finish.
Coloring reproduces the vehicle equipped by the naval garrison in Kita Kuril in 1944.
It would be fun to decorate the collection as it is, or try to create a scene during a landing operation only with a float.
New Guinea Front with different coloring is also on sale, so the collection is attractive.
