Hasegawa 1/72 Kawasaki Ki61-I Tei Hien (Tony) - detailed plastic kit

This Hasegawa 1/72 representation of the Kawasaki Ki61-I Tei Hien, nicknamed "Tony", captures the aircrafts profile and period appearance. The kit is aimed at modellers who value historical accuracy and crisp surface detail when building display models or small dioramas.

Why the Ki61 matters to scale modellers

The Kawasaki Ki61-I Tei stood out in its era thanks to a liquid cooled inline engine, which influenced its silhouette and performance. This kit gives modellers a chance to study that distinctive design and reproduce the machine that flew in key Pacific air operations.

Parts quality and the assembly experience

Hasegawa reproduces the Ki61-I with well defined parts, including cockpit components and panel lines that help create a realistic finished model. The assembly requires moderate modelling skills and common hobby tools, rewarding builders with a convincing 1/72 scale replica.
