About product

The Light Cruiser Mogami in 1:700 Scale (Tamiya)

An injection-molded plastic kit of the Japanese cruiser Mogami in her original light cruiser form, part of the Waterline series (a model to the waterline). The set from the manufacturer Tamiya faithfully captures the compact bridge structure and the characteristic funnel; the five main gun turrets are mounted on polyethylene joints and stay rotatable once the build is complete. The model is made of pre-colored plastic, but painting it over is still recommended.

The real subject

The Mogami was launched in 1934 as the first unit of the class of the same name. Until 1939 she served as a light cruiser with triple 15.5 cm guns; later she was rearmed as a heavy cruiser with 20 cm guns. She took part in a number of operations in the Pacific war, including the Battle of Midway and the Battle of Leyte Gulf. The kit captures her early light cruiser configuration.

Building and painting tips

A model of the Waterline series can be set on a water surface or on a stand. Despite the pre-colored plastic we recommend painting the hull and decks over with an airbrush and bringing out the details with washes. The floatplanes included add to the fidelity; fine railings can be added with a photo-etched set.

Who the model is for

  • Collectors of the Japanese wartime fleet
  • Builders of Waterline series models in 1:700
  • Less experienced as well as advanced modelers
  • Anyone interested in the naval war in the Pacific

The model is supplied unassembled and unpainted. Glue, paints and accessories are not included in the package, unless stated otherwise.
