Trumpeter 02405 Mitsubishi A6M2b Model 21 Zero Fighter - 1:24 large-scale static display kit

The Trumpeter Mitsubishi A6M2b Model 21 Zero Fighter in 1:24 scale is a large-format plastic assembly kit intended for detailed static display and historical modelling. It suits modelers who want a high-detail representation of the early A6M2b Type 21 at display scale.

The real Mitsubishi A6M2b Type 21 was an early operational version of the A6M Zero produced before mid-1942. Introduced after initial trials in 1940, the Type 21 featured naval adaptations including folding wingtips and an arrestor hook, and it entered combat operations in China in August 1940. The A6M2b was prominent in early Pacific operations before later variants replaced it and many surviving airframes were reassigned or used in secondary roles.

As a model, the kit reflects the Type 21 configuration with parts designed to reproduce external details and service markings. The kit includes multiple sprues, separate aileron and flap linkages with metal shafts, photo-etched hinge details, and rubber tyres. The decal sheet provides markings for an Akagi unit from the Pearl Harbor action. Engine and landing gear features are represented for display, and instrument panel film parts are supplied for cockpit facings.

A finely detailed large-scale representation of the early A6M2b Type 21, intended for collectors and advanced modellers focused on static historical display and accurate external detail.
