1. Collecting Diecast or Plastic Scale Models
Collecting finished models or creating your own can be a blast. Here at Plaza Japan, we feel that shopping for them should be just as fun. We have a variety of models for every collector interested in a Japanese hobby, so spend some time shopping around.
Diecast Models
Die casting is a process of metal casting in which molten metal is forced into a mold cavity under high pressure. Most die castings are made from zinc, copper, aluminum, magnesium, lead, pewter, and tin-based alloys.
This elaborate process creates beautiful metal models that are characterized by a distinct surface finish and dimensional consistency. Die casting is often used to create models of cars, airplanes, ships, and boats.
If you are an auto, airplane, or boat enthusiast or someone learning how to start a hobby, we have a variety of Ebbro finished diecast models that are finely crafted with extreme attention to detail. In addition, Ebbro products are durable, ensuring that they will last the test of time.
Plastic Scale Models
There's something so exciting about opening a new kit and starting a fresh build! Plastic model kits can depict various subjects, from vehicles to figures or even buildings. Kits can also vary in difficulty, with ones with pieces that snap together or others that require special tools, paints and cement.
At Plaza Japan, we have plastic model kits for everyone, whether they are experienced builders or people who are looking to start a new hobby. There are cars and ships for vehicle enthusiasts and even figures for collectors interested in popular shows, such as the Macross Super Messiah Valkyrie plastic model kit, which is a 1/72 scale kit.
If you are looking for a new kit or plastic scale model, Plaza Japan carries a wide variety of model kits, including ones that you will not be able to find anywhere else.
In addition, our model kits are of the highest quality from brands such as Bandai, GSI Creos, Fine Molds, and many others.
When it comes to collectibles, diecast models, and plastic scale models, we have a carefully curated inventory and a large selection for every type of collector or builder.
2. Completing Stunning Visual Puzzles
Are you tired of building the same old, boring puzzles? Do you want to learn how to start a hobby that will excite you and give you something that you can put on display? With themes that range from Disney to ocean views to cherry blossoms, our puzzles are designed to be equally as beautiful as they are a challenge to assemble. In addition, we carry puzzles for different ages and skill levels, to ensure that all puzzlers will find the puzzle just for them.
Building a puzzle is more than fitting pieces together. It is a unique, fun activity and Japanese hobby that will both capture your attention and give you a sense of satisfaction upon completion.
In addition, building a puzzle doesn’t have to be a single-player game! Advance to multiplayer with friends and family for a project you all work together on. No matter how you like to build, you will find magical puzzle options here.
