How are Doyusha model kits different from other kinds of model kits?
One of the most noticeable differences between Doyusha kits and those from other Japanese brands is their focus on franchises and fandoms from outside Japan, such as Transformers, as well as on model cars and bikes based on vehicles from around the world. While the design process varies by each company and each builder has their own preferences, the quality of Doyusha models is as excellent as any of the other models Plaza Japan offers.
How easy or difficult is it to build a model kit?
The sheer variety of Doyusha models isn’t just about styles, but about complexity and levels of difficulty, so that there’s something for every kind of hobby builder. Others, however, are excellent for dedicated builders, and come with many small, delicate parts and require more precise tools. The choice is yours!
How can I figure out the size and scale of a Doyusha model?
Following other Japanese brands, Doyusha shows scaling as a fraction, meaning that a completed model car at 1/7 scale would be seven times larger in real life. For more specific sizing, check the details of the kit that caught your eye.
What kinds of tools do I need to build Doyusha model kits?
There are some essentials any builder should have, including clippers, filers, and, for some kits, glues intended for plastic model kits. For more dedicated builders, it’s also ideal to have multiple types of these tools for different cuts and grits, along with building mats and more.
