Academy 1/48 A6M2b Zero Fighter Model 21: Period Accurate Scale Subject

The Academy 1/48 A6M2b Zero Fighter Model 21 provides a compact but detailed representation of the Mitsubishi A6M Zero as seen during the Midway period. It is aimed at modellers who want a historically informed project with clear construction steps.

Historical Context and Visual Accuracy

Construction Notes for Builders

Components are supplied on well-organised sprues and require careful trimming and test-fitting. Builders can expect a satisfying assembly process that rewards attention to seam work and paint preparation.

Presentation and Display Options

At 1/48 scale the completed model suits both shelved displays and small diorama scenes, letting you showcase period markings or create a Midway vignette.
