discussion Hasegawa 1/32.Ki61-1 Hei HIEN (TONY)

[john i am]

Hi folks here's one I acquired from a recent show one of the under table unloved kits. The bmf and camo will be a challenge so I'll be doing a little revell one alongside as a practice mule. Here's some shots out the box and it comes with a bonus metal pilot. A Capt Teruhiko Kobayashi??? I'll have to google his name and see what comes up. Thanks for looking in and any comments left.
Cheers John

Great choice John , i remember having the Revell 1/32 version of this when i was a kid - it was the first time i had seen recessed rivets and panel lines (it must have been one of the earliest kits to feature this) It was a very nice looking kit but I knocked over a full bottle of liquid cement into the box and ruined it!!DOH!! looking forward to seeing this modern tooling in progress , cheers tony
