This item is a completed action toy designed for collectors. It does not require either cement or paint to complete or use.
The mighty Minerva--the all-purpose spacecraft that carried Crusher Joe and his team on space adventures in novels, manga, a movie, and OVAs--has at last been replicated as this faithfully detailed 1/500 creation in Wave's W.H.A.M! (Wave High Advanced Model) toy line! This high-quality, 23cm-long completed model features movable wingtips, deployable landing gear, missile hatches on the bottom that can be pulled out, openable hatches on the top to reveal its laser cannon and missiles, and a hanger bay hatch that can be opened to store the included same-scale Fighter-1, Fighter-2, and Gareon. A custom black display stand is also provided. The stand shown in the photos below are of a prototype; actual stand differs from the prototype. Made of ABS, polycarbonate, and PVC plastic, this is a dream come true for "Crusher Joe" fans, or anyone who digs carefully planned "what-if" spacecraft--don't miss out!
Note: Please note that the photos shown are of a prototype; the production version may vary. Also, figures such as this are mass produced and as a result some inconsistencies in finish and painting may occur; these are not considered manufacturer's defects. If you absolutely must have perfection, prepare to do some touch-up work on your own.
