1/700 Scale Pair from Tamiya 31434 for IJN I-16 and I-58

Tamiya's 1/700 I-16 and I-58 kit is tailored for model builders with an interest in naval subjects. The pair highlights two important Imperial Japanese Navy submarines from World War II, with components shaped to capture distinctive features of each hull and conning tower.

Historically, the I-16 took part in the Pearl Harbor operations, and the I-58 later sank the USS Indianapolis. The assembly process emphasises accurate silhouette and fine detailing so modellers can produce historically informed display pieces. These kits are well suited to collectors who enjoy compact, high-detail naval models.

How detailed are the parts in Tamiya 31434?

Parts are moulded to represent hull contours and deck fittings accurately for 1/700 scale, allowing for convincing small-scale detail when painted and finished carefully.

Is this kit suitable for a harbour or sea diorama?

Yes, the 1/700 size is ideal for compact dioramas; the pair can be incorporated into harbour scenes or open-sea displays using standard 1/700 accessories and base materials.
