Hasegawa 20522 - 1/24 Mazda Cosmo Sport with Chin Spoiler Kit

The Mazda Cosmo Sport holds a unique place in automotive history thanks to its sleek coupe lines and pioneering rotary engine. This Hasegawa 1/24 replica recreates that late 1960s elegance with accurate proportions and period styling, giving model makers a faithful miniature of a true classic.

Build Character and Display Presence

This Hasegawa kit balances approachable assembly with rewarding detail, suited to both newer builders and seasoned modellers. The included chin spoiler adds authenticity to the silhouette and helps convey the car's aerodynamic intent. Finished models make great shelf displays or centrepieces in a vintage car collection, showcasing the Cosmo Sport's distinctive profile.

Period Significance and Engineering Notes

As Mazda's early sports car, the Cosmo Sport was notable for popularising rotary power in passenger cars. Building this kit is a way to appreciate that engineering milestone while studying the styling cues that set the car apart in its era.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/24
  • Material: PS Plastic
  • Assembly: Glue required
  • Includes: Chin Spoiler
The kit is manageable for newcomers who have patience and basic modelling tools. Some parts need careful trimming and fitting, so allow extra time on your first build.
Decals are supplied to replicate authentic trim and badges. They are printed for clear registration but benefit from decal setting solution for a painted model.
Use enamel or acrylics formulated for plastic kits. Primer helps show fit issues and a fine gloss coat highlights the Cosmo's curved panels before applying decals.
Out of the box the kit offers a faithful representation. Builders wanting more realism can add metal wheelweights, photoetched trim, or custom wiring for the engine bay.
