1/16 Scale Representation of a WWII Navy Pilot

The Tamiya 36312 figure kit captures a WWII Japanese Navy fighter pilot at 1/16 scale with strong attention to authentic attire and equipment. Key items such as the flight suit, cap, goggles and life vest are modelled to show small-scale texture and seam detail. The figure offers two assembly variants, arms crossed or holding a katana, providing options for different display moods. Clear parts for the goggle lenses, precise stickers for rank details, and a display base are all included to complete the model.

Authentic Clothing and Accessories

Early Pacific War naval aircrew typically wore flight suits paired with red leather boots and goggles framed in metal. Even though official guidance often discouraged carrying swords due to compass issues, many historic images show pilots with katanas, a feature this kit reflects to enhance period credibility.

How delicate are the clear parts and how should they be handled?

The clear parts are fine plastic and should be handled with care; avoid scratching by using soft tweezers and store them separately until ready for installation.

Can I display the figure without the base?

Yes, the figure can be mounted directly into a diorama or glued to a custom base if you prefer an integrated scene rather than the supplied display stand.
