Fujimi 43204 1/700 Takao Heavy Cruiser Full Hull Kit (w Dock)

This Fujimi 43204 model reproduces the IJN Heavy Cruiser Takao in 1/700 scale, aimed at dedicated hobbyists and naval collectors. The kit balances historical detail with manageable assembly, letting builders recreate a notable World War II cruiser with realistic deck and hull features.

History and Modelling Interest

The Takao was a standout heavy cruiser in its era, combining heavy armament with distinctive superstructure lines. For Canadian modellers who value accuracy, the Fujimi 43204 kit delivers recognizable shapes and components that reward careful painting and rigging.

Assembly Notes and Display Options

The full hull format gives a solid display piece with a dock included for presenting the ship on a shelf or in a case. At 1/700 scale the parts are small but well defined, so take your time with trimming, gluing and painting to highlight the ship's profile and fittings.
