Together with the 1/1000 Domelaze III.

This kit is the Domelaze III released as part of the Mecha Collection Yamato 2199 series. It's a massive battleship that came out as a ridiculously large kit at 1/1000 scale, but the Mecha Collection release brings it down to a nice compact size.

Like its predecessors, it's small but packed with solid detail and a great sense of volume, and the low part count means you can put it together pretty quickly. Since it's molded in a single color, it can feel a bit plain, and there are no moving parts to speak of — so just sit back and enjoy the close-up detail shots. :-)

All in all, this kit fits the Mecha Collection concept perfectly — ignoring scale in favor of a miniature size that's just right for casual collecting. If you're a Yamato fan or just love space battleships, this is a fun little kit to kick back and enjoy. :-)
