Twin Pack Nakajima Ki84 Hayate Model Kits

The Hasegawa 01979 package contains two 1/72 Nakajima Ki84 Type 4 Fighter kits so modellers can build a matched set or experiment with different finishes. The Hayate, also called "Frank" by Allied forces, is reproduced with attention to scale form.

Significance in Service and Modelling Use

The Ki84 was prized for its top speed and agility in combat. This kit emphasises correct proportions and panel details, giving hobbyists the parts needed to recreate authentic markings or customise variants for display.

Parts Quality and Display Readiness

Each kit features cleanly moulded sprues and detailed cockpit components that require standard trimming and glue. With careful painting and decals, the assembled models make strong display pieces for a WWII collection.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Material: Plastic
  • Assembly: Required
  • Paint & Decals: Not included

Are aftermarket upgrades recommended for these kits?

Aftermarket detail sets like photo-etch or resin cockpits can enhance realism, but the out-of-box parts are detailed enough for a high quality finish for most builders.

Will the parts fit well without modification?

Fit is generally good, though minor sanding and test-fitting will ensure clean seams. Some fillers may be useful on a few panel joints depending on paint plans.

Can I use the kits for a small diorama?

Yes, the twin kits are ideal for a compact diorama showing pair operations, a maintenance scene, or a comparative before-and-after weathering study.

Is paint required for an accurate finish?

Paints and decals are not included, so plan to use accurate colour references and compatible hobby paints to achieve the intended historical look.
