Overview of the Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero Model 52 in Tamiya 60318

The Tamiya 60318 1/32 kit recreates the Mitsubishi A6M5 Zero Fighter Model 52 with careful attention to external form and assembly fidelity. It is designed for modelmakers seeking an accurate period subject with realistic finishing options.

Key structural and armament details

Inside the box are finely detailed cockpit elements, optional canopy configurations and metal parts for cannons and pitot fittings. Photo-etched components and pre-painted gun barrels raise the standard of the build and help achieve a crisp final appearance.

Great service, excellent communication, some of the lowest prices on the internet and can't fault there shipping really. Overall great place to purchase from and will definitely use again in the future.
This is best tackled by experienced modellers or confident intermediates due to the fine photo-etched parts and detailed assembly steps.
Yes, decals are supplied to represent appropriate wartime markings and the kit also includes masking seals to assist in painting roundels and stripes accurately.
Use a thin clear coat to seal decals and paint, and avoid harsh cleaning. Store models away from direct sunlight to prevent fading and keep dust to a minimum with a display case.
While the kit is comprehensive, aftermarket photo-etch or resin upgrades are available from specialist suppliers if you want extra detailing or alternative equipment options.
