If you’re looking for your next build, you’ve come to the right place. We carry models from all of the major names, such as Fujimi, Aoshima, and Bandai, as well as some lesser-known kits that you won’t find anywhere else. For all of your building needs, whims, and, yes, piles, we are here for you! We take pride in offering the best Japanese plastic model kits on the market. At these prices, why not stock up?
\nWhether you collect anime figures, build plastic model kits, or battle with Pokémon cards, we’re guaranteed to have something that’ll make you smile because we have been specializing in connecting authentic Japanese fun to worldwide fans at the click of a mouse or tap on a screen since 2004. In that time, we’ve continued to earn the trust of collectors, hobbyists, and fans by selling great Japanese merchandise, directly from our home in Osaka to yours.
\nThat’s easy! Browse the wide variety of options available online or in person, and pick a model kit that looks interesting. Before you know it, you’ll have the pieces in your hands! Jumping straight in and getting some hands-on experience with simple, beginner-friendly models without too many parts is the best way to get started.
\nBuilds require lots of patience to complete. Whether it’s your first time or your hundredth build, some models can be a little tricky. But don’t worry! Every kit comes with a set of instructions, so you’ll never have to worry about successfully completing it on your own. For some companies and scale model kits, some have systems that give you a good baseline of difficulty level, such as Bandai, where HG or “High Grade” kits are especially beginner-friendly, and “Real Grade,” despite how it sounds, is actually harder.
\nThe glue can be just as necessary as the plastic model kit itself, and because of that, many world-famous Japanese brands cater to hobby builders who need glues that are easy to work with, dry fast, and don’t stink. Tamiya is one of the best, and because of how big those buildable minis are in Japan, we offer an even greater selection at Plaza Japan than what you might find at many other hobby stores.
\nBecause model kits are designed to be true-to-scale, what you are building is a smaller replica, and in many cases, with Japanese models, down to the last detail. Look for numbers on the box like 1/100 or 1/64; that means that in real life, your model would be 100 or 64 times larger in real life!
\nAssemble fighting aircraft from all over the world and across history, from the Japanese WW2 fighter planes to US jets. Adding accessories like decals can help to build the most authentic recreation, and collectors can share their completed aircraft with other plastic model builders through social media and model clubs. Whether you prefer classic military aircraft, modern jets, helicopters, or display-ready replicas, this category makes it easy to compare kits by aircraft type, scale, and building style.
\nModel builders and collectors can find an impressive selection of detailed airplane models at Plaza Japan, ranging from model airplane kits to other popular plastic models. You can choose from helicopters, planes, fighter jets, and many others from military branches all over the world. Having different types of plastic military airplanes in your collection makes it more realistic and fun to play with or admire from afar.
\nNo matter what type of model airplane kits you’re looking for, you’ll find the tools, decals, and accessories to make your collection look fabulous. We also offer fast shipping directly from Japan to get your models to you quickly. Get started here at Plaza Japan if you’re ready to grow your collection of plastic model airplanes!
\nWe get a lot of questions about our model kits. Here are a few we hear often:
\nModel airplanes can be quite fun to put together, but some do require greater skill than others. If you’re a beginner, pay close attention to the type of plane that you wish to purchase. Look for projects that have fewer pieces — those will be more beginner-friendly. Checking the kit scale, part count, and recommended tools before ordering can also help you choose a project that feels manageable. Once you get the hang of putting together model airplanes, you can move on to more complex projects to display in your space!
\nWhile the specific tools you’ll need for each project will vary, there are some essentials that are must-haves when you’re putting together model airplane kits. This includes modeling putty and glue, sharp crafting knives to cut out pieces and remove unnecessary blemishes, and paint brushes (add thinner for mistakes).
\nSome people will place their plastic airplanes on shelves so that they can regularly handle them. Others may get a bit more creative and hang them from the ceiling using wire to create scenes. Those who want to preserve their airplanes may choose to display them in glass cases. Display your models in whichever manner brings you the most joy and helps you protect your projects!
\nIf you’re going for realism, you won’t want every building to look like it’s in pristine condition. While you can create this effect yourself, Plaza Japan offers plastic building models constructed to appear damaged by war and time. You can use these buildings to recreate historical battles or create new ones with characters from your favorite anime, movies, and comic books.
\r\nModel buildings let you assemble and display authentic temples and castles from Japanese cities and other popular sites. You’ll find tiny school desks, chair sets, road signs, vending machines, and many other unique pieces.

\r\nHave questions about plastic model buildings? Let Plaza Japan provide the info you’re after. Here are answers to frequently asked questions about plastic buildings.
\r\nModel building is a process that typically requires separating parts, assembling them, and painting your finished models. You can spend countless hours assembling plastic models. Whether you’re passing time or relaxing, the main tip to remember with building models is to have fun!
\r\nThe exact items you’ll need to build models can vary. Some models include everything you need. Generally, having an Exacto knife (or something similar), tweezers, modeling putty, sanding pads, and your paint of choice is good.
\r\nA diorama is typically more extensive than a model, but a diorama is a type of model. Dioramas typically follow a scale similar to the ones used to categorize models. For instance, 1/30 scale dioramas or models would be 30 times smaller than their real-life counterparts.
\r\nWhether you paint plastic buildings or other models before or after assembling them is up to you. Some people prefer to paint model pieces before assembling them. Others prefer painting a completed model after building it. Try both styles and see which one you prefer.

Perhaps it’s for this reason that no matter whether you are a military enthusiast or just a person who enjoys building for its own sake, Japanese hobby military models are a cut above the rest. While Plaza Japan’s supplies come directly from Japan, the models themselves are extensive, ranging from different times and places worldwide. And, of course, you can even go beyond realism and enjoy creating battle scenes in the stars with robot kits like Gundam!
\r\nPlaza Japan is proud to be allied with an exclusive army of top-brass Japanese companies that excel in quality and accuracy in every product. To guarantee authenticity and your delight, everything we sell is deployed straight from Japan, with no additional third-party sellers.

\r\nJapanese military models are known for their historical accuracy. This translates into highly satisfying builds for people who are either completely inexperienced with military matters or want a nostalgic reminder of the vehicles they operated while in the service. Additionally, Japanese military models are designed to scale so that any scene you create will also look as realistic (or fantastical!) as you want them to be. Our products display ratio information to show their size compared to real life. So, if your tank is a 1 / 100, that means what you’re building would be 100 times the size of what you have on your table!
\r\nMany model enthusiasts prefer the high-quality craftsmanship that Japanese military models provide, which is why our military model kits are so extensive. Some of the most well-known military model brands we carry are Aoshima, Fujimi, Hasegawa, Tamiya, and Tomytec, with products that range from infantry kits and tanks to navy ships and fighter jets.
\r\nLike any building hobby, go with the “rule of cool!” Is there a specific fighter jet that soars above the rest? Is there a part of world history, such as WWI’s early tanks, that you find irresistibly fascinating? The most important thing in every hobby, including military models, is to have fun - and even if you lose the battle with your first military model, you can still win the hobby war!
\r\nDepending on your military model, many different tools will make your building hobby more enjoyable and the finished product more satisfactory. While specific tools vary from project to project, consider investing in high-quality cutting tools, building mats, and, if you choose models that need painting, airbrushes and air guns, accessories like grass, dirt, and decals, and quality paints and glues from industry leaders like Tamiya and Fine Molds.
