あんまり組みやすくないですね
砲塔や測距儀が可動式なのはいいですが、細かったり小さかったりして意味をなしてません。説明書上の理屈では組めますが、部品の強度を考えると回りませんし回せません。壊れますので。アフターパーツで対応なら分かりますが、生憎ICMさんのアフターパーツがどこで売ってるか分かりません。だいたい主砲塔の接続箇所なんて見えないんだから、動かしたければがっつり太く長く作ればいいものをちんまりと細く短く成形してあるものだから怖くて事実上固定したままです。とはいえ1/700に似たパーツ割ながらパーツの整合性は大分良いです。でも結構無茶な所もあり無理くりくっつけたとこもありました。バリが多いのはご愛嬌ということで。このキット、いつ頃の状態を想定してるか読めなかったのですが、なんか一次大戦初頭っぽい雰囲気でよかったです。海外メーカーが国内メーカーでは手掛けない船をリリースしてくれるので、一次大戦マニアとしては嬉しいです。Amazonさんはカンペキに仕事してくれました。ご苦労さまでした。

A frustrating model to build
I sometimes think model manufacturers over do the detail, or at least the small parts that could have easily been part of the larger moulding, and this is a classic case. As a modeller of more years than I would care to admit I love detail, but, overdoing tiny pieces that add nothing to the experience when they could of been part of the bigger part is not fun its just tedious....and often ruins the overall effect. Lots of flash, poor fitting parts and impossibly fitting parts, the masts are a prime example. Not only are the top parts of the mast ridiculously delicate they won't support rigging at any amount of tension without bending. I'm still working on a solution to that.Be prepared to use a lot of filler and in some cases a bit of brute force, definitely not a model for beginners or even intermediary level modellers.I've posted pictures of work in progress, but in all honestly not a model I particularly enjoyed building. I've said it before, you get what you pay for....long live Tamiya
