Introduction to Hasegawa 65723 VF-11B

The Hasegawa 65723 VF-11B Super Thunderbolt brings the Macross PLUS fighter to life at 1/72 scale, suited to those comfortable with precise modelling tasks. The parts layout and engineering focus on fidelity to the original design.

Moulding and Detail

Fine surface detail and accurate panel lines characterise this plastic kit, helping the finished model match screen references. Parts are shaped to reduce visible seams and to accept washes and panel lines effectively.

Construction Tips

Because this kit targets experienced builders, allow time for careful dry-fitting and cleanup. Masking and layered painting will greatly improve colour separation, while thin superglue or plastic cement can strengthen joins where needed.

Specifications

  • Scale: 1/72
  • Color Separation: Parts are molded in base colors; painting is optional.
  • Assembly Type: Snap-fit

Hasegawa 65723 VF-11B Super Thunderbolt rewards patience and attention to finish. It suits collectors who enjoy cleaning up parts, applying decals and bringing out subtle shading to match Macross PLUS artwork.

The kit is snap-fit, but a small amount of plastic cement or CA can be used to secure stressed joins or to fill gaps after alignment checks.
Enamel and acrylic model paints both work well; thin coats and pre-shade techniques help reveal panel detail. Use primer for better adhesion on glossy parts.
Some subassemblies allow limited posing, but major configuration changes may need modification. Check joints and peg fits before final gluing.
