Pre-order Plum's National Treasure Matsumoto CastleHave you ever admired the architectural style of ancient Japanese castles? If you have, you should check out Plums latest 1/200th scale model of one of Japan's national treasures Matsumoto Castle. The castle itself will require some assembly, likely a set of basic tools and model cement. It stands around eighteen centimeters tall and is fairly detailed. One cute extra that comes along with it is a figurine of a ninja girl with a large scroll that has a frog sitting atop of it. She is a little generic, but I like her bow and cute ponytail, the star on her chest also ads some extra cuteness to her. I can also appreciate how her scarf flows in the wind behind her. The set is very interesting and hits a lot of market groups. It would be a nice gift for someone who likes Japanese things, castles, or assembling model kits. The ninja girl is also a nice addition to the package. Plum's Matsumoto Castle model kit is expected to ship out in January of next year. Its suggested retail price is ¥6300 [ Pre-order at HobbyLink Japan | Hobby Search | AmiAmi | CD Japan ] Did you know?
