Full Hull 1/700 Scale IJN Kaga Replica

The Fujimi FJ-45189 offers a detailed 1/700 scale full hull replica of the IJN Kaga. Photo-etched parts are supplied to reproduce delicate fittings and details that enhance the model's overall authenticity for museum-style or shelf display.

Significance and Modelling Interest

As a vessel with notable early-war service, the Kaga attracts historical modellers. This kit highlights the carrier's profile and deck ergonomics while inviting precise work on small-scale features using the included etched parts.

Quality of Parts and Presentation Advice

Fujimi's parts show fine moulding and good scale accuracy. The etched components require steady hands and appropriate adhesives but result in a sharper finish. Displaying the completed model with period-appropriate paint and gentle weathering will emphasise structural detail.

  • Scale: 1/700
  • Material: Plastic with Photo-Etched Parts
  • Assembly: Requires glue and paint (not included)
  • Full Hull Design
Photo-etched pieces are thin and can bend easily; handle with fine tweezers and use gentle pressure when bending or fitting to maintain their shape.
Superglue is commonly used for attaching photo-etch to plastic, and cyanoacrylate activators can speed curing; practise on scrap pieces if you are new to metal-to-plastic joins.
The kit is aimed at intermediate to advanced modellers due to small-scale parts and the need for precise painting and assembly; novices can still attempt it with time and patience.
