Overview of Hasegawa 65723 VF-11B Super Thunderbolt

The Hasegawa 65723 VF-11B Super Thunderbolt represents the Macross PLUS craft in 1/72 scale, offering a balance of accurate shape and approachable assembly. It is well suited to modellers who enjoy careful finishing work.

Craftsmanship and Fit

Precision in the moulding yields tight-fitting panels and defined rivet and panel line detail. Minimal clean-up is required on most parts, making it quicker to progress to painting and weathering stages.

Tips for Assembly

Plan out paint stages and dry-fit major subassemblies before final gluing. Panel lining and selective washes will accentuate the kit's sculpt, and light sanding of joins produces a professional result.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Color Separation: Parts are molded in base colors; painting is optional.
  • Assembly Type: Snap-fit

Hasegawa 65723 VF-11B Super Thunderbolt rewards methodical modelling with a strong on-shelf presence when completed. It suits collectors who like to refine edges, decals and subtle shading.

Which abrasives are best for seam work?

Start with medium grit sanding sticks then move to fine gradings and finishing cloths. Use putty sparingly and sand smooth for invisible joins.

How should decals be sealed?

Apply a gloss clear before decal placement to reduce silvering, then finish with a satin or matt varnish depending on desired sheen.

What display options suit this kit?

A simple stand or diorama base highlights flight poses; a clear support rod keeps the model unobstructed. Consider subtle weathering for a more realistic display effect.

Any pointers for painting small details?

Use a magnifier, fine sable brushes and thinned paint. Mask tiny panels with low-tack tape and build up colour in thin layers to avoid paint flooding recessed lines.
