This infra-red controlled highly detailed and very accurate 1/700-scale replica of the Imperial Japanese Navy battleship Yamato comes pre-painted and mostly assembled, requiring some basic assembly of the turrets, superstructure, and other details. The set also includes pre-painted photo-etched metal detail parts!
The movement is very realistic, and you can operate the ship directly with the controller or use the two pre-installed programs to set sail. The sound of the ship underway is accompanied by the sounds of turrets rotating and guns firing, at pre-programmed 30-second intervals. Very realistic! Instructions are in Japanese.
This special release of the Gimmix Yamato includes parts to display the ship as a full-hull model! Also inlcudes a decorative display base.
