Is it true that Arii has re-issued the huge Nichimo kit of the Yamato in a slightly smaller scale of 1/250th?
I built the Nichimo about 10 years ago but had to leave it behind when marriage broke up.Just no-where to keep it. A smaller more manageable version would be nice to tackle again.I think 250th would make it about 40 inches or so?
I well remember having to travel to heathrow airport and sit in the customs shed for 2 hours filling out forms before I could collect the Nichimo version and then trying to fit it in the car!!!
My then wife bought it for me as a birthday present after I saw it advertised for quite a few months in FSM.It could be even longer than 10 years ago but I remember the advert was at the bottom of the page on its own offering a special price which I cannot remember now.
Oh the good old days,before the brain cells starting dying and glasses became compulsory.
I remember the motors where not included but had to be bought seperately so when I wrote to Nichimo they sent them to me for nothing!!They were BIG motors!
Thanks
