This time, I would like to share a small-scale assembly model from Bandai - Bandai Mechanical Collection Series: Space Battleship Yamato 2199. A video version of this article can be found on my homepage, and if you are interested, you can also check it out. People put the words in front, personally feel that this is a cheap and fun assembly model, as the title said, this is "a cup of coffee money happiness", the effect of the completion is small and exquisite, but also very suitable for pure novices into the pit of a assembly model, if only pure assembly then the entire assembly process may only take 10 minutes, of course, the effect is more "glue", the details do not look so rich, but every 30cm or so is still a good product, recommended to be placed on the desk or TV cabinet, bookcase inside, An artifact that instantly enhances style.
"Space Battleship Yamato" is actually a Japanese animation born in 1974, which does not seem to be too popular in China, but in Japan it is a national animation, and it is also an epoch-making symbol of Japanese animation, this "2199" version is a remake of the anime based on the original in 2013, anyway, I was only referring to the original and the remake for this model... The first and second episodes of each, yes, basically just see it fly up and finish, completely handsome. All of the above is basically nonsense, because it is a secondary reason for me to buy it, and the main reason is only one - cheap.
Say good "a cup of coffee money happy", the price of personal purchase is 27.2 yuan free shipping, almost is the price of a cup of what gram of coffee, look for "BANDAI" to buy there will be no mistake, buy this thing may recognize the brand more reliable than the store.
The size of the box is also small and exquisite, the size of a palm.
The assembly instructions are printed in the box, it is really environmentally friendly, but the steps of assembly are relatively simple, and the patience point of pure novices should not be a big problem, but it is necessary to look carefully, otherwise it is easy to correct the wrong direction.
The board is only these two small packages, divided into gray and red two colors, basically the main color of the Yamato number is included, the overall combination is very good, there is no need to worry about not being able to spell such strange things.
But there are still some small details of the color is not shown, such as the position of the bridge and cabin is a lump of ash, the model itself does not provide a patch for color patches, obsessive-compulsive disorder can only buy a paint to make up for it, but the model itself is relatively small, the eyes are not clean is not impossible.
A lot of notches are used on the overall parts to depict the detailed parts, that is, the line grooves in the figure, making the detail effect more abundant. If you choose pure assembly, you can follow this plate diagram to make up the completed effect.
The biggest drawback of this model may be that some parts are too small, when cutting it, be careful not to break the parts, if you want to repair the water outlet, and you have to be careful to hurt the hand, don't ask me how I know.
Because I am just an interest in playing the party, since it is not a big guy, of course, it can only be used to fight with the introductory play, but also want better results, so in addition to the pure assembly also did a few more steps of the process, the simplest of course is the seepage line, interested can also understand, the cost from 5 yuan ~ 50 yuan range, it is estimated that the model to improve the highest efficiency of the details of the way.
In addition, a little green was added to the position of the cabin and the bridge to restore the effect of glass (yes, I am the obsessive-compulsive disorder), and the jet port was also added with a little yellow simulated flame effect, making the overall effect a little fuller.
Finally, a layer of matting paint was sprayed as a whole to reduce the plastic feeling.
The final finished product effect is personally satisfied, after all, a cup of coffee money is happy, the craftsmanship is also slag, and there is no way to ask for more. Overall, the cost performance is first-class, although there are some small shortcomings, but it is still a relatively friendly assembly model, cheap, small, fine, excellent combination, it is a good product for assembly entry, killing time, office decoration X, family decoration, glue guy training.
