Fujimi 42162 Chibimaru Ship No.3 Kongo Retro-Inspired Model Kit  [FJ-42162]

Fujimi 42162 Chibimaru Ship No.3 Kongo - Retro Inspired Miniature

The Fujimi 42162 Chibimaru Ship No.3 Kongo reimagines the historic Kongo battleship in a compact, stylised format. As a non-scale Chibimaru release, it blends a retro-inspired silhouette with simplified parts that make it accessible to a broad range of hobbyists. The original Kongo, first launched in 1913, lends historical context to this playful rendition.

Approachable Assembly and Style

The kit embraces a Q-style look that trades strict scale fidelity for charm and ease of build. Key features of the battleship are suggested rather than modelled in exhaustive detail, creating a quicker assembly process that still reads as the Kongo. Snap-fit components cut down on tools and adhesives.

Great for Shelves and Cabinets

Small and lightweight, this model is ideal for compact displays or grouping with other Chibimaru kits. Its distinctive look stands out among naval pieces and makes an excellent entry point for collectors wanting variety without complex builds.
