In Response To: Doyushas Shinano – any good?
Derick, I agree for the most part with Duane’s assessment of the Doyusha kit as it definetly is of Lindberg if not Aurora quality,however,you must take into account that this kit is 30 years old. This was the state of the art 30 years ago and a lot of us were happy to have it. The kit certainly has a lot of shortcomings as Duane pointed out. One rather annoying feature are the supports for the anti-aircraft sponsons that are way out of scale and very bulky. I have one of these kits myself and yes, I haven’t assembled mine either. It is however very impressive for it’s size. Given the choices available, I would much rather have a 3 foot model of this impressive ship than one I could hold in the palm of my hand.
