The cute deformed plastic model "Chibimaru Fuso" is back!
The battleship Fuso was the first Fuso-class ship owned by the Imperial Japanese Navy after the Kongo-class, and was completed in 1915.

Both the displacement and the main guns were among the largest in the world at the time, and after undergoing two modifications, it entered the Pacific War.

The ship's distinctive appearance, including its unbalanced bridge, reconnaissance seaplanes for modern warfare, and radar installation, is eye-catching.

In October 1944, towards the end of the war, the ship entered the Surigao Strait at night as part of Operation Sho-Ichigo to defend the Philippines, and was sunk in a gun battle with American surface forces.
- A series of cute palm-sized deformed Japanese Navy ships - Snap-fit design that requires no adhesive, multicolor molding and realistic stickers mean no painting required.
The product is based on the Fuso battleship, which took part in the final battle of the Battle of Leyte Gulf, and is finished in a style that condenses the characteristics of its reduced and deformed form.
- Molded parts consist of pre-painted parts in warship and ship bottom colors.
- The design is divided into the hull and bottom, so it can be used as both an offshore type and a full hull type.

The characteristic parts seen on the actual ship are faithfully recreated.

The hull is a one-piece structure with the left and right sides integrated using a slide mold, reproducing the chunky shape that is characteristic of battleships.

The anchor is a separate part to create a unique shape, and the portholes are realistically depicted, including the eaves.
- The stern aircraft work deck features linoleum retainers that are recreated with sculptures.
- The final wartime form of the ship, with a radar mounted on the top of the bridge, is accurately depicted.
- The upper deck is carved to resemble a wooden deck.

The depth of the engraving makes it suitable for shading when recreating painted parts.
- Wooden and linoleum decks can be easily recreated using the included stickers, and the wood grain pattern is realistic with multiple colors.

? The aircraft operation deck features three-dimensional rails and linoleum flooring.
- The 36cm main gun, 15cm secondary gun, and 12.7cm anti-aircraft gun have their muzzles opened using slide molds, resulting in realistic barrels.
- The main gun is made of different parts depending on whether it is equipped with a rangefinder or an additional machine gun.
- The main gun can change its rotation angle.
The bridge is a stacked structure, accurately expressing the unbalanced exterior shape.

The bridge is made visible by inserting pillars, just like the real ship, and is densely equipped with anti-aircraft guns and other equipment.
- Includes a deformed aircraft carrier just like the ship.
- The aircraft carrier includes the "Type 95 Seaplane Reconnaissance Plane," and markings such as the Japanese flag are recreated with included stickers.
- One unit is molded in dark green.
