1/72 Hasegawa [Crusher Joe] Fighter 2 w/Alfin Figure 64775

The Fighter 2, a carrier-based aircraft of the Minerva from the anime Crusher Joe, is reproduced as a 1/72 scale model kit. The kit also includes a 1/20 scale resin figure of Alfin. (Adhesive is required to assemble the resin figure.)

This is a snap-fit kit that requires no glue. The model is designed with high-density surface detailing that captures the realistic feel of an aircraft.

The canopy, missile launch ports on the underside of the fuselage, and the air brakes (also functioning as thrust vectoring plates) can be displayed in either the open or closed position. The “2” marking on the nose and the “J” marking behind the cockpit are provided as decals. The landing gear and gear covers can be displayed in either parked or in-flight configuration. The included display stand allows the model to be displayed in flight mode.

The package illustration is by Tankuro Kato.

The kit also includes newly tooled plastic figures:

• Alfin and Ricky in seated poses
• Dongo, depicted standing upright as if performing maintenance
