Hasegawa 1/350 SOYA Antarctic Research Vessel – Japan’s Second Antarctic Expedition Ship

Description

Here’s an incredibly detailed model of Japan’s Antarctic observation ship, the Soya.

This edition of Hasegawa’s excellent Soya kit depicts the Observation 2nd Corps version of the ship, following up on their previous releases of the 1st and 3rd Corps versions. Also includes one DH-2 Beaver aircraft and two Sikorsky S-58 helicopters. The helicopters are cleverly molded in clear plastic, with the intricate tail framework replicated with decals. The bridge is also molded in clear. Metal rod and chain round out the realistic detailing items. 

Includes a very nice stand! A great model of an interesting and unusual subject!
