Trumpeter 06205 SOC-3 Seagull 1:350 Plastic Model Kit  [TP06205]

SOC-3 Seagull by Trumpeter in 1:350 scale

A 1:350 scale plastic model kit of the SOC-3 Seagull scout seaplane, presented as a small shipboard reconnaissance subject to sit alongside 1:350 naval vessels.

The SOC Seagull was a United States Navy scout-observation seaplane used in the 1930s and into the early years of World War II. Operated from catapults on cruisers and battleships, these aircraft performed reconnaissance, artillery spotting and light liaison duties. The SOC-3 designation refers to a production variant that served in shipboard roles where quick recovery and stable float performance were priorities.

This kit is supplied in 1:350 scale and reproduces the general silhouette and shipboard fittings of the SOC-3 Seagull at miniature scale. The parts count and sprue layout reflect a small-scale approach: the main assemblies are broken into multiple sprues with dedicated clear parts. Markings are provided for United States Navy camouflage; painters and builders should plan for fine brushwork or airbrushing to preserve the subject's small-scale detail.

A concise seaplane model that complements 1:350 naval dioramas and appeals to builders focused on accurate miniature presentation.
