1/144 ZERO FIGHTER (A6M3 Model 22) by Sweet
=====================================
.
In the biggest shock of the year - SWEET release another Zero!? (who would have thought it!)
Please do not mistake the A6M3for the A6M2!
.
It appears to be the retail package of the model recently supplied on the "1/144 Basic" Model magazine.

AHHH, NOW I get it!
ReplyDeleteSweet are not so much selling model planes BUT rather selling nice box art work (the box happens to contain a model of some sort of Japanese fighter)!
Now I will have to start another collection of these kits in order to get a nice set of box art work.
Anybody want the box contents for free, I believe they build up into a plane called a Zero?
Zero? Never heard of it. Are there any others available in 1/144 scale? ;-)
ReplyDeleteI agree with earlier observations about the Zero and wonder whether even Japanese modellers are becoming a little jaded with the number released in the scale.
I think someone at Sweet should check out Martin's polls for some suggestions.
PS. BD99, please do NOT post a poll asking us which model of Zero we'd like to see next. We may be forced to do nasty things to you ...
...blast, and there i was all set to launch the Type 22a vs Type 22b vs Type 22c vs Type 22d and ust to be a bit wild, the 23c
ReplyDeleteWell, I would actually like to see a decent model 52 or even an A6M8, but I could wait until after they've done a MkVc and MkVIII Spitfire first.
