Tamiya 31318 Detailed 1/700 Kiso Light Cruiser

The Kuma-class cruiser Kiso, completed in 1920, played roles in operations near the Aleutians and the Philippines. This Tamiya kit recreates its 1932 appearance with three funnels, 8cm dual-purpose guns and a canvas-covered bridge, and includes degaussing cable and anchor details to match period fittings.

Display and Collection Notes

The kit is well suited to display shelves and diorama work, offering well-defined armament and superstructure parts. Collectors who assemble multiple Kuma-class vessels can form an accurate interwar-era flotilla.
