Second Ship and Chokai




From Hasegawa Hobby Kits come two warships: one imaginary and one real.  Both are impressive, feature precision fitted model pieces, full assembly, paint and decal instructions and look spectacular when completed.

Phantom Death Shadow-just the name is guaranteed to send enemies of the Arcadia Second Ship scurrying.

Measuring in at 1:1500 Scale-you can just imagine how big the spaceship would be if it existed-the Arcadia Space Pirate Battleship model captures the look and feel of the imaginary deadly space cruiser. 

A deep blue with light blue and red accents on its tip and nacelles, the Arcadia bristles with weapons-especially deadly is its deck mounted cannon turrets brandishing three Pulsar cannon apiece.

Three skull and crossbows decorate its hull and its aft section recreates the look of an old wooden warship captain’s quarters-complete with flag.

Part of its Creator Works series of models, the Hasegawa Hobby Kits Arcadia Second Ship model comes disassembled on eight part trees-pre-colored red, blue, yellow, black and white. Parts detach easily with little or no flashing and assemble easily and snuggly when using the  extensive instructions included as a guide.
Check out the skull and crossbones pieces-talk about detail!

A special stygian black base is included and when the ship is mounted on it and viewed it appears the ship is floating in space-especially when viewed in dim light. Also included are two Cosmo Wing fighters.

As impressive as the Arcadia model is the Water Line Series 1:700 Scale J.M.S.D.F. DDG Chokai Kongo Class Destroyer is every bit as lethal and impressive.

Modeled after the  infamous Japanese Chokai Naval Destroyer the model boasts deck armament, a helicopter pad, full tower, deck and hull accessories and details and a full antennae display. 

The model also includes full assembly instructions, paint and deal diagrams and parts that detach easily from numerous part trees.

In no time at all you’ll have your very own destroyer with all the intricate details you expect from Hasegawa Hobby Kits.
