TAMASHII NATIONS - Space Battleship Yamato 2202-1/2000 Space Battleship Yamato 2202, Bandai Spirits Kikan-Taizen Figure

I would really pay attention to the size of the ship since it’s small. It’s feels sturdy enough to handle but I’d use the tools it came with or tweezers to move the gun turrets. It lights up and is well designed. I really enjoyed the detail and the fact that i didn’t have to build it

Very small and fragile, but also very detailed. LED light effects are very cool. Instructions are in Japanese, but it's mostly preassembled and the diagrams in the manual are self-explanatory. Would have been 5 stars if it was diecast metal and/or significantly bigger. This will have to satisfy my needs until Star Blazers: Space Battleship Yamato 2205 gets a North American English Blu-ray release (it's been over two years since it was released in theaters in Japan).

First of all, received the yamato model really fast, way faster than the projected delivery date. As for the model itself its absolutely amazing. For its size which is roughly 6 inches, the detail is incredible. Its built and painted and can even light thus was absolutely worth paying a bit of a premium price for it.The display base is a bit underwhelming as the reflectorized sheet (mirror) is very scratchy so I went for the tamashii stage to display the ship which in my opinion looks why better.One tip if you are thinking of displaying it. I definitely recommend to remove the included batteries thats installed, its pretty straight forward when looking at the instructions even though they are in japanese. That way to prevent corrosion on the model.Overall absolutely happy and fine addition to my collection!

Joins the Fleet on my Christmas tree!

As others said, it is highly detailed for such a small model. It comes with a little plastic tool to help remove pieces like the cover for the light switches, and another tool that seems to be just for moving the two small gun turrets. These are useful, because the model is very delicate. It wouldn't take much to break off any of the little projections, including the gun barrels. This is not a toy and should be handled very carefully. There are two light switches, one for the main gun and one for everything else. There are two batteries, each secured with screws and covered with plates to hide the screws. The lights don't quite reach the top of the tower. I'm not sure if this is a design flaw or an individual defect, but since I won't use the lights much it's not a big issue. It is overpriced, but personally worth it to spare the trouble of trying to put a kit together only to be disappointed in the result. My little pre-school self wanted an "Argo" toy so much, and it only took forty years to get it.

For such a small scale model, the detail is phenomenal! Loving the fact that it lights up and has optional ways to display it. Definitely a great buy if you are a fan of the anime Star Blazers!

Great! Highly detailed! Quick shipping, great service!!

Very well detailed ship.Most importantly I didn't have to paint it.Because I suck.Awesome addition to my model hoarding affliction 😃👍

真っ暗にして、光るヤマトの窓に乗員の営みの夢を見ます。スイッチを入れる時、電池を交換する時、そこにはとても小さく折れてしまいそうなパーツがあるので慎重にしています。それでも女性の指でも触ってしまう危うさがあるのでピンセットなどで扱うのが正解なのだと思います。それにしても素敵なヤマト・・

精巧な作りでビックリ。ただ、サイズがもう一回りあれば大満足です。

観賞用です。

今のおもちゃは華奢ですねぇ！壊れそう。
