About product

Japanese M30-32 helmet in 1:48 scale

This is a small accessory for figures, not a kit and not a finished figure either. The set brings the Japanese steel helmet in 1:48 scale, which you set on an altered figure's head, use with a vehicle crew or as equipment set down in a diorama. The manufacturer makes the same subject in other scales as well, so you can pick the one that fits your model.

The real subject

The Japanese steel helmet designated M30-32, in the literature also known as the Type 90, was introduced at the beginning of the 1930s and remained the standard headgear of the Japanese army until 1945. It has a shallow, fairly round shell with a short edge running all the way round and a simple fabric chin strap. Given how long it was in service, it suits figures and vehicles from the whole of the 1930s and 1940s.

Usage and painting tips

Wash the casting in lukewarm water with detergent, separate it from the casting block with a fine saw and level the mark left by the block with a file; sanding is better done wet and with respiratory protection. Use cyanoacrylate glue; ordinary cement for plastic will not join a small part. After a thin primer apply the base shade, pull the edges out with a drybrush and pick out the shallow transition between the shell and the edge with a fine dark wash. If the casting carries a badge on the front, pull it out at the very end with a fine brush.

Who the accessory is for

  • Builders of figures for Japanese vehicles from the Second World War period
  • Dioramas where the helmet lies set down beside a soldier or on a vehicle
  • Conversions of figures with unsuitable headgear
  • Modelers used to working with small castings and cyanoacrylate glue

The accessory is supplied unpainted and without a figure. Paints, glue and other parts are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.

FAQ

A single item of headgear as an accessory for a figure. It is not a whole figure or a model; check the number of pieces on the box.

The Japanese army from the beginning of the 1930s until 1945, that is the great majority of figures and vehicles from this era.

With cyanoacrylate glue onto a degreased and washed surface. Solvent cement for plastic will not hold a small casting.

We recommend it. A thin coat of primer on a washed casting markedly improves both the adhesion of the paint and the final surface.
