Double Kit Release for Nakajima Ki84 Hayate

The Hasegawa 01979 set delivers two 1/72 scale Nakajima Ki84 Type 4 Fighter kits, allowing modellers to produce a pair of Hayates. Known to Allied pilots as "Frank", the aircraft is represented with faithful scale geometry for historical modelling.

Historical Context and Replica Value

The Ki84 was notable for its speed and handling late in the conflict. These kits provide defined panel lines and proportionally accurate components so modellers can reproduce unit markings or explore alternative finish options.

Construction Details and Display Outcomes

Each kit contains accurately moulded parts that benefit from careful preparation, assembly and painting. The cockpit and surface detail respond well to washes and weathering, yielding convincing display models for a WWII aircraft collection.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Required
  • Paint & Decals: Not included

Is Hasegawa 01979 suitable for display-quality builds?

Yes, with careful assembly and paintwork the kits can reach display quality. Attention to seam filling and paint preparation will improve the final presentation.

Do the kits include multiple marking options?

Decals are not included in the box, so select aftermarket decal sheets or use paint masks to replicate specific squadron markings.

What common tools are needed to assemble these kits?

A hobby knife, sprue cutters, fine files, polystyrene cement and paints are the basics. An airbrush or fine brushes will help achieve neat finishes on 1/72 scale surfaces.

Can I convert one kit into a different variant?

Modellers can modify external fittings or add scratchbuilt details to represent field conversions, but check references to maintain historical accuracy when altering the basic airframe.
