Hi ;

 This is only a short post .Has anyone built the big KAWANISHI flying boat I don't remember anymore than that . I do know it's a big model in whatever scale it is .I don't remember and I was looking for something else when it popped out of my stash and said " Build Me " .So I thought " Why Not ? "  I believe it's a HASAGAWA kit . It could be TAMIYA  though, but it's BIG .    Thank You in advance for any input    Tanker-Builder

Hasegawa did the H6K and H8K (Emily) in 1/72.  They are old kits and take some work to build.  One was built nicely in one of the Group Builds a few years ago, can't remember which one GB but it was the H8K.
