Upgrade Your A6M Zero with Accurate Metal Details

The Mitsubishi A6M Zero remains a popular subject for scale aircraft builders. Tamiya's 12624 parts set adds finely made metal components to help you capture authentic detail on a 1/48 model.

Carefully Crafted Detail Parts

Geared toward modellers who focus on realism, the set contains pieces that complement paint and weathering work. The package includes:

Stainless Steel Pitot Tube: A precise pitot that gives a crisp profile when installed.
Metal 20mm Cannon Barrels: Finished in a realistic dark tone to match scale photos.
Cockpit Seat Belts: Detailed harnesses to lift cockpit presentations.
Wheel Chocks: Small but effective accessories for parked display scenes.

Specifications

Scale: 1/48

Do I need special tools for the Tamiya 12624 kit?

Basic modelling tools cover most tasks, but fine tweezers, a sharp knife, and precision files make fitting metal parts easier.

Can I weather the seat belts and metal parts?

Yes. Use gentle washes and pastels or thin acrylic paints to tone down shine and match the cockpit finish without obscuring detail.

Are the wheel chocks strong enough for dioramas?

They are sturdy for display use. Glue them down when composing a diorama to prevent movement and to keep scale alignment.
