1/32 Japanese seated pilots.

[Kawaman1960]

Hi all.

 

 I'm looking for a good seated Japanese ( navy ) pilot with helmet on. I don't usually do flying aircraft but picking up another ZM J7W1 v.cheap from a charity shop has got me doing  the " what if " 1946 thing. Any leads appreciated.

 

Cheers Alan

Hi,

We have this guy,

designed for the Zero/Rufe but should be fairly easy to fit most Japanese aircraft.

Hasegawa has some nice seated pilots in their kits.  This is from the Shiden Kai...

The Pacific war in model building...especially figures is woefully lacking....like a 1000 to 1 compared to German figures. 

 

Bob at MDC (Above) is absolute pleasure to buy from.  He goes above and beyond.  Buy from him! You won't be sorry

Hi and thanks for the info. I intend to model my J7W1 in flying mode ( a first for me in 1/32 ) depicting a B29 interception so I'd like to get a pilot with an oxygen mask and googles on but I think that asking a bit much by the sounds of it. I see the Hasegawa's Hi 61 has a pilot head with a mask on which is better than nothing. Anyone got spare figure from that kit they'd like to part with?

Hey that pic looks familiar! 

 

I would offer you that pilot from the Hasegawa Hien kit but I dissected the head and used just the mask portion on my build.

Dissected the head - sounds messy. Never mind, maybe something else / another might turn up. I've not got the cockpit done yet so some time in hand.
