Hasegawa 1/72 Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Fighter Type 21: Model Summary

This 1/72 representation of the Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Fighter Type 21 from Hasegawa recreates the slim silhouette and wing form that defined the type. The kit captures profile accuracy and surface detail in a compact package suited to display cases and shelf collections.

Why this Zero appeals to builders

The A6M2 earned its place in aviation history for exceptional range and manoeuvrability in early World War II operations. Hasegawa's tooling reflects those proportions, allowing builders to replicate period profiles and markings with reliable parts alignment at 1/72 scale.

Tips for a smooth build

Careful test-fitting before gluing will help achieve tight seams on this kit. The moulding quality supports fine paintwork and decal application, making it a rewarding project for intermediate modellers who enjoy authentic finishes.
