choose TAMIYA on the first page and takes you to the TAMIYA page with a list of what the molds came from

  • Suzuya (IJN CA) {31311} [1/700] (WW2) WL

    Old Mold

    Suzuya (IJN CA) {77003/No.3} [1/700] (WW2) WL

  • OK. Clumsy look - this one needs retooling. Late war fit, with lots of (oversized) light AA

  •  MIKUMA - no info

  • Mogami (IJN CL/CA) {31312} [1/700] (WW2)

    Old Mold

    Mogami (IJN CL/CA) {77007} [1/700] (WW2)

  • New Mold
