Great review Peter. Trumpeter really do have the worlds best packaging eh?? It's also nice to see they are giving us some bulkheads for the hull and moulding in halves to accurately produce the bow. Much better than the Titanic. May I suggest you look at the Tamiya instructions for a painting guide and also consider LP paints as they have a few specific Japanese Navy colours. Just noticed.. it doesnt say "Yamato" anywhere?? Must be a licensing thing, or Chinese laws about what you can and can't write on your packaging??
I noticed that too, no Yamato on the box. Here is the US the box is a little different. Here the box clearly says Yamato over a big Japanese flag and the manufacturer is Gallery Models and MRC. Same art work and as far as I can tell and the kit is exactly the same. Jeff
@@JeffDonahueScaleModeling Yeah, Monochrome, Gallery/MRC and Glow2B have all released the same kit? It would appear the Glow2B has the Yamato sticker on it?
"LP Paints" Will look into that 👍
Always said trumpeter packaging is probably the best out there just nicely presented
@@charliegrech8433 👍 agree
1:11:04 is a sink mark Peter. There's another directly above that one and then some more down the length of the hull. best get filling buddy. They are caused by the thick round sections on the inside where the screws are fitted. This is truly Trumpeters best 1/200 Hull yet!! The plating may be a little heavy?, but the Bow is stunning.
@@jimhantsch Well I have to say having a look at your channel I would not be throwing stones at all, In Fact I really would find yourself away from swallowing your whole foot before it chokes you, Please let us all know about how brilliant your channel is and the amazing content spread over 21 with 3 hidden videos, Amazing,, Nigel may bloody count rivets but at least he can count and yes he does have a closer look at kits, but he is not in anyway a turn off to the average modeller, in fact he is brilliant because he takes time to have a decent look at what people are going to spend money on and that stuff is hard to come buy, Hurting the Hobby mate you are a dead set tosser , He has done so much for the Global modelling community , more than your attempts so far, And I will wager his nearly 19,000 subs to the 6 family members who support you and your special needs , Grow up and Here is a recommendation for you, As the Good Lord said to Moses " GO FORTH AND MULTIPLY "
Hi Peter, I would recommend Tamiya LP8 for the lower hull and LP12 Kure Arsenal for your hull/superstructure. The deck could be painted LP16 Deck Tan and the Linoleum could be painted with LP17. The reason I recommend LP paints is you dont have to use a Primer, they are Tamiyas latest colour matched colours and they are tough when dry.
Was just starting to make tomorrows pizza when my computer notified me about this box opening. Been waiting for it!
Wow! What a magnificent kit! Will be mentioning this tomorrow. Thank you Peter, for going to so much effort to video this for us. Very informative, that's for sure.
Thanks Ron, I guess the 15 sheets of Photo-etch that might put you off purchasing this, and the time, space etc 👍. Pizza for lunch today here !
This is a seriously impressive kit, I have the old Tamiya 350th scale Musashi and it’s a massive kit so can only imagine how immense this build will be👍
My kit should be at the post office right now. It will be a big entertaining build!
"big entertaining build" That's an understatement 😆 Congrats on your purchase ! 👍
Absolutely stunning! THANK YOU for sharing.
You are welcome mate !
History lessons with Pete. Cant wait for the series and progress.
That thing is a beast! It will be a real beauty when completed!
Looking forward to this build!
As always typical trumpeter packaging and nicely packed too I’ve just received my kit and it’s stunning ,nice review ..
Jesus, its huge, nearly 3000 pieces? It’s gonna take months to complete (or more). This particular Pom can’t wait to follow this project to completion. Best of luck with it!!!
That's a big ship Peter!!! What a build it is going to be. Thanks for sharing mate! Model on. Johnny
Wow can’t wait for the build .love your videos and I don’t even build models .have a great weekend
Thanks Paul, Maybe this would be a 1st build for you ? Cheers 😉
Great review pete,can't wait to see you build it .
Might be waiting awhile... but its tempting every time I look at that box 🙂
Peter, thanks for this. I really like your style. I'm no way good enough to even think about getting this model, but it's on my 'wishlist' and it may be a motivator for me to keep improving so that one day I'm worthy of it. I hope you have a great time with it.
I guess it's on many wish-list and maybe in your collection on day..cheers.
Thanks very much for the video Peter!
Thanks for watching mate 👍
Hi Peter, great kit. It's a lot to take in one video. I'll probably watch it again later. Thanks for sharing. Jeff
Cheers mate.👍
Wow what a big box. This is going to look awesome when it’s done. 🤩
With the help of your products I'll sail through this in no time 😉👍
Peter, gonna love this build!
Its intimidating a little lol
Wow! beautiful kit. I look forward to watching this one progress. Subscribed.
Thanks for the sub! Welcome aboard.. looking forward to watching your builds 👍
Excellent review. A museum quality kit. Thank you.
This Kit is everything, but not a "museum quality" Kit! If you want to get a good Model of the Yamato, go for the actual 1/350 Yamato!
Love these huge kits wish I had room for them. Excellent review of the kit.
Thanks for you comment mate 👍
Awesome model kit, fantastic review, thanks for showing
Your welcome mate 👍
Fantastic Mate Glad to see you excited as hell, A kid in a Hobby Store moment, Great Unboxing great effort in Editing and awesome complete Package, Well Done
Really am excited about this kit. Thanks for tips on where to put it ! Talk again soon.
@@OzScalemodeling did he say to put it where you think I would tell you to put it??
WOW What a Box.
I know right ! lol😮
Love these large scale models. Don't have to strain my older eyes as much looking at all the detail compared to the 1/700 scale ships.
Great review!
Your so right, I really like 1/700 but way to small. 👍
Cant wait to get my hands on one of these! When ive finished the Trumpeter u boat 😁
Just placed an order for one from Metro. All thanks to your excellent review.
Happy days ahead for you! Enjoy! 👍
I'M IN - love the video!!
Thank you
Enorme !! bon courage !!
I really enjoyed this video! You have quite a build in front of you and I look forward to watching you do it.. I hope you make them, especially with the photo etch! Thanks for sharing this video.
Thank you so much!
@@OzScalemodeling Hi I just found your channel and look forward to watching your videos! I just finished the Moebius Discovery XD-1 my biggest kit to date. I do mostly military models but the XD-1 was a Christmas gift. I subscribed to your channel and I know I will enjoy watching you build this one. Take care and thanks much.
Great unboxing, I look forward to seeing the build. I've just subscribed following a recommendation from Nigel's Modelling Bench
Welcome aboard 😀 👍
Great review Peter. Massive task ahead mate. Enjoy. 👍
Absolutely :)
Extremely impressive kit and I am extremely jealous. Your Yamato is bigger than my Tamiya Yamato. Enjoy Peter!
Thanks! 👍
DAMN! this is Awesome, peter. I've always wanted a large scale Yamato model kit.
So your going to get this one? 😉
@@OzScalemodeling sadly probably not, way too expensive for me, but mabey one day i might get her.
Hi Peter. that ship is really massive! it looks great. 2800 parts is crazy. and the price too. i will enjoy following your build. the dent you mention on the hull could be a sink mark. sometimes when cools too rapidly after injected the plastic shrinks and if there’s no ribs behind to support it will sink in. but nothing a little putty can’t take care off. small issue i believe. enjoy building it.
Thanks buddy, I realize that now, a minor flaw for such a huge hull.Cheers 😉
Just opened mine last night. I have every Trumpeter 1/200 kit and the detail on the Yamato blows it away. Especially the hull. All I need is a wood deck and metal barrels.
Yes that's what I will be watching out for, Barrels and deck 😀
Hi Peter, yup me again , I just got an answer back from Metro Hobbies I reached out to them about up date sets for the Yamato , apparently they are coming in around 4 weeks after release this includes the deck & metal gun barrels plus associated parts & sets , so far the info is still pretty sketchy but it is coming on that point they are clear, hoping all is well & keep up the good work
Very interesting keep in touch 👌
Hi Peter, maaaaate im got excited to when I saw the hull , great review, my 1/350 yamato looks tiny , yet it takes my whole shelf , mate your going to need a dry dock to build this Yamato 😂😂😂😂😂😂 mate you show us the build , lol no show and tell , maybe we can get Ron to film it 😊😊😊😊😊😊 have a good one mate, so jealous😄😄😄😄😄check under the deck for hole sizes
Let's talk Ron into building one, but I think the PE scares him 😳 cheers mate 👍
WOW! That was awesome Peter. Really nice to see you open all that. What a massive kit. Christmas in July. This is going to be such a great series from you. Cheers
Now if I could just find space for it lol Maybe you should build one? 🤔👍
Hi Peter, wow, now over 1,200 views. That's really good. I had to set down and watch it again this morning while the house was nice and quiet. This is an amazing kit. The molding is very good. I really like that hull. Those couple of little sink marks will be easy to fix. This is going to take a lot of room to build. I'm sure the model is longer than my workbench. You know you have already built a bigger ship than this. The QM2 is almost 90 m. longer and a couple of meters wider than Yamato. This is going to be a lot of fun to build. Have a great day. Jeff
Thanks Jeff, Looks like people were hungry for more info on this model and hopefully I have provided that..Cheers mate 👍🇦🇺😉
Iowa Class had a beam of 108 feet as the Panama Canal was 110 feet wide. It limited the guns to 16". It would have been very unstable when firing a broadside. If the guns were bigger. The Yamato's guns were 18" thus requiring a wider beam for stability when firing a broadside. This is a great kit. Enjoy the build.
That's only 1 foot either side to get through, amazing! Thanks for your comment and watching. Cheers 👍
I just got a moving dolly hand truck in a box just like that. I envy you all the way up to dusting it or affording a case to house it.
When get around to it Peter it will be good to see it brought to life , i do prefer 1/700 but a ship in any scale is always fun to watch , cheers marra . Regards Gav.
1/700 are real nice but my eyes suffer...Cheers
Спасибо за подробный обзор!
Hi Peter , well last night I received my Yamato from Metro Hobbies at 6 pm thanks for that Australia Post , like you it is a pleasant surprise at all the detail & a definite improvement over the original , how ever the photo etch gives me pause surely they could have done a deal with " PONTOS detail sets ", oh well I can wait patience is what modelling is all about is it not ?.
Glad you got you kit safely. I'm also patient and will wait for a wood deck at least. 😀 🚢
Hi Peter, fab kit. the pipes runinng down the side of the ship ar davits, they fold down on Yamato, you appear to have a late 1944 version of the ship. I have the Anaomy of the ship book, its all you need
Yes I will defiantly be getting that book. "davits" ah thanks Jason. I have a lot to read up on 👍
I’m in!
Wow, 5800 views! Way to go Peter! I have been meaning to tell you that Japan actually has a Yamato museum. They have a 1/10th scale model of it on display. Maybe you have already seen it, it is very impressive. Have a great day. Jeff
Hi Jeff 👋 yes it's a popular ship model and yes I seen pics of that museum. Cheers mate.
Awesome mate..i have the tamiya 78025 kit as a backlog..subs added.
Thanks and welcome aboard ⚓
You definitely need a bigger Bench, old Ron must be green with envy.
G'Day Jame.....I think he is, he will mention it in today's episode 👍
Howdy. Was going to recommend Model Monkey for 3d "bits" but he only seems to have IJN ventilators.
Panama Can lock (original ones) were 900 x 110 x 40 feet, so, US ships held to WL dimensions of ±880 x 108 x 35 as a maximum.
And, while larger than your tub, that kit would fit on your sofa :-)
You'll need about a pint of Kure gray and Hull Red for this beastie. You will have the exciting bit of having a large number of superstructure decks which were covered in russet-red-brown linoleum, which will make for some evil masking.
Neat Yamato triva:
There was an elevator in the central command tower.
Much of the ship had air conditioning to combat hot Pacific weather.
Before the last battle, the decks were "painted" with ash and turpentine to darken them (many arguments on what color that was)
IJN fielded an "canister" anti-aircraft shell for the 18" guns, but those were never actually used.
Thanks for your comment and info, hmm on the couch eh yep it will fit there lol. That elevator would be better than all those stairs. I am hoping someone will bring out a wooden deck.. Cheers mate 😉👍
Great for R/C conversion!!! I think that could be used the same conversion kits for Trumpeter's Iowa for motors, shaft & props.
It sure would 👍
Think you're going to need a bigger house for that Pete, wonder if Pontos will be bringing out a detail up set for it?
I’M IN
Hi Peter , yep that time again , deck "ZE" main super structure the 6 lower hatches are upside down it's even listed on page 39 of the instructions , tell me who puts a view port at the bottom of the hatch self defeating I would think, to all modellers doing this kit keep your eyes open , & enjoy till the next problem .
I have this kit in the Glo2B version . It’s amazing … can wait to start building it ., Going to wait a little bit and see if any aftermarket wood decks come out for this historical Bldg but hmmm why the different boxing nobody knows🤷🏻♂️?
I think I will also wait for wood decks. I think that Europe has Glo2B, US has Gallery and here down under has monochrome distributors. Cheers
Hi Peter
Good unboxing she has plenty to keep one occupied.
But just a word of warning make sure you have some reference material as you are building 13 small boats and 4planes and there is no where in the instructions they tell you to fit them.
Cheers
Denn8s
Thanks for the tip, I will be searching a lot of reference material 👍
Hi Peter , the special glue from Metro Hobbies has just rolled up for the wooden deck it is called Super Phatic Glue description goes Ultra thin foam safe, odourless , penetrating, Bonds: wood, foam, plastic ,& carbon fibre, GRP the company's name is Deluxe Materials, they sent me 3 containers, suppose to resist our heat we will see when the summer comes .
Sounds interesting 🤔 you know some decks already come with adhesive backing would you use this glue also?
Peter that's the problem with it , the adhesive they use doesn't hold up sticky at first but after 12 months no real adhesive left & with the Aussie summer the adhesive gives up , now I have 2 choices one is the deck from Pontos when it comes or paint it the way Nigel suggested in his video I'm not sure yet .
@@garywood1973 This glue sounds like it will work, I will order some... Thanks for sharing this product info 👍
@@OzScalemodeling no worries, ask for Adam if that helps
nice, looks like you'll need a bigger bench!
I'M IN
Great out of box review looks like a real nice kit...I would say the size is impressive but I have built the 1/200 Yamato before....just the old Nichimo kit and that was a difficult build....would I buy this.....no.....but if this company does the Battleship Fuso or my all time favourite ship the IJN Akagi in 1/200 I'm in hook..line and sinker!!!!
Oh yes that Akagi would be amazing ... cheers mate. 👍
I reckon your gonna need a fair bit of paint for that hull 🤔😂😂 carn't wait for you to start it tho👍👍
Yeah probably prime from a spray can eh 😉
I watched a very well made movie about a Japanese mathematical genius that was working to get the Yamato canceled in favor for carriers. It was on Tubi. Well worth the watch it is called The Great War of Archimedes.
oh thanks I will look that up...Cheers 👍
De-cals thank you.
I had the old 1970’s Nichimo version of the Yamato but eBay’ed it a couple of years ago. It absolutely pales in comparison to this.
The same old question from my wife: “Where would you put it if you had it??”
Your wife has a good point, I hardly have space for the box 😀
IM IN
So need his kit, but know one here in NZ has got it..... the wait goes on!
Wow that sux, and ordering from Australia 🇦🇺 would cost a fortune in postage.
@@OzScalemodeling I've just ordered one, should have by the end of the year.... Hopefully
Ok , Wooden deck issue, how do we secure the wooden deck to the plastic one ? , I have tried super glue, areldite , wood glue & so on none really work well especially in a high temperature country such as Australia , we need a work around this problem , one idea I have had is to drill small holes through the plastic deck put the wooden deck down flip it over the glue it from behind & in the holes that are drilled using the holes as anchors for the wooden deck, Peter what do you think ?.
Holes might help but its usually the edges that start lifting first.. its a good question and I will have to also research some answers.
I had this pre-oredered from hobbylink japan as soon as it was announced but sadly had to cancel it due to the cost and the almost 200 USD shipping at a bad time due to having just been let go from my job so money is now real tight until I can find a new one
That's a shame, I'm am sure things will improve and you can order another one. All the best to you finding a job 👍
Its an impressive box full. Shall we place odds on how long it takes to build and paint ?
A long time to do it right eh.... 👍😉
Good morning Peter
I have just ordered my kit and was wondering when are you going to start your build
I'm going overseas for a couple months soon and have a couple out small builds in line so probably towards the end of the year 😅
Question for you , have you seen the Yamato Memorial where they have a 1/10th scale model of the ship so big you need a cut lunch just to see all of it .
That would be amazing to see, I have see video's of it. 😀
Hi Peter, page 20 they are the scuppers being added.
"scuppers"??
@@OzScalemodeling basicly a drain for water on the deck
You may have seen these. They're both good: (book) Requiem for Battleship Yamato by Yoshida Mitsuru and (film) Yamato ("2005 Japanese war film").
I'm trying to find that film with subtitles to watch and I will check up on the book to. Thanks 😊
@@OzScalemodeling If you can't find the film, let me know, and I'll mail you my copy. It has subtitles.
Looks like an epic kit Peter. Is there a Wooden Deck Set available for it?
Not that I know of ..yet. 😀
@@OzScalemodeling Too big and expensive for me anyway mate. I do have the Tamiya Premium 1/350 Yamato kit in my stash, with extra PE sets for it etc. Will be building that soon. Will be great to watch you build this monster though. Looking forward to that.
Lets see how good this kit turrets compare to fujimi 1/200 collection sets..so far we know the fujimi is top notch and is a good upgrade for the old 1/200 nichimo kit.
Yes the fujimi ones are real nice 👍
Wow, huge. Will a bigger bench be needed?
I could always build it on the floor 🤔 Cheers.
Hi,is there a detailed diagram were to put the telegraph communication wire,,I cannot get my head round the fact that the Japanese sacrificed such a beautiful battleship with absolutely no aircraft carriers snd destroyers etc,basically it did not matter how powerful this ship was it had no chance at all without support.
The Anatomy of a ship Yamato has detailed images. I will be buying that. 👍
yeah ah about that Adam from Metro Hobbies has put me onto a new adhesive for that very thing I stressed that our high temperatures the normal stuff is not cutting it when I get it would you like to be contacted over it ?.
Yes please. 👍
If they come out with an "as commissioned" version I will jump all over it. I am converting an old 1/200 scale to "as commissioned" and adding hull plating. What a challenge.
Wow that must be amazing, I don't know what the difference would be
Is the kit capable of being converted to RC?..........I know Tamiya and Lindberg offers RC conversions kits for some of their ship models. Does this company do the same?
I'm not sure, maybe someone else knows and can comment here?🤔
Wot huge kit way beyond my attention span & where do u put it maybe add on a new room lol !!? Plastic moels are reaching a whole new era good luck with that
It won't even fit in the bathtub 😉
Now Pontos1:200 scale upgrade set for Monochrome/Gallery/Glow2b Yamato battleship kit available. Wood decks/ 380 CNC parts/ 7 frets/brass rotors/resin parts etc included
Thank you for informing viewers of this, I have been following the progress of Pontos and are still waiting for the price. As far as I am aware it available as pre-order with no solid date or price yet. Cheers
@Out of the Box Models Its not yet available, I hear they are just working out cost and postage rates. Search Keumho Kim or Trumpeter 1:200 Battleship Yamato ONLY tips n tricks on Facebook.
now I can inform you of the status of the set. It is on the final step of box designing. Pontos promised by this week so the pre order can be accepted in one week.
🙂
I think at the end of ww2, the Japanese ship builders and engineers burned and destroyed all of the drawings and engineering blue prints for the yamoto battle ship . Thats what I have heard and that's why there is not much on the yamoto battle ship apart from a few photos. And during it's construction the battle ship Yamoto was constructed in complete secrecy so that probably has contributed to the lack of information or facts about the ship. Suggestion what if they IJN had the chance to convert a Yamoto battle ship to a aircraft carrier WAW that would have been something to see ! . Thanks for the show and information on this splendid model a possible future project for me to do.
Yes I heard that also :)
Life is going to be too short for that one.
seems a shame that you get a wood deck for this! Cant wait to see build video
I'm sure someone will produce one hopefully sooner rather than later. 😉
Moulded on De-Gausing cable, not good.
Hi Peter , have you tried dry fitting the stern of the Yamato yet ?, a rude surprise you get 22 cm of plastic you can't use & falls 7 cm short of mid ships I have no idea why this was done , when you try it you should see what I mean unfortunately we did pay for it , question at this time is do I cut it out or leave it given my Fujimi turrets do go that deep, let me know what you think ..thanks
So the deck doesn't fit at all? Surely that can't be right or there would be a recall 🤔
@@OzScalemodeling Fits perfectly. Part ZD just extends quite a distance forward under the main deck. It's not a problem.
It was done to give some depth to the aircraft hangar bay and if you want to open the hatches either side
The hull appears to need a lot of work, not sure what all the lumps are on the bulbous bow are but they need removing, when you get your anatomy book look carefully at the hull because it does not look right at all.
Are you looking at the illustrations or are there real images of that? But yes I look forward to getting that book 👍
@@OzScalemodeling not many real images of Yamato, few more of her sister ship but going on drawings in the anatomy book and that fack that no other model, including the 2013 Tamiya tool have them. there are other issues to. mines on order
@@ModelkitStuff your new model Bench is to small lol.
@@OzScalemodeling it extends 😉maybe a group build with Ron lol
I don't have the patience to buy something that will take years to build.
But imagine the end result. 😉 Thanks for you comment.
Peter , go to part "ZD" even in the diagram it is way to long , dry fit the part & it confirms my claim.
How is it compared to Trumpeter's same subject, same scale kit ?
Same kit!
Yes it's made by trumpeter. 😀
@@OzScalemodeling thank you
@@johnhughes2653 thank you
$700 aud.
I can share you a japanese modeler webpage if you need reference for correction...i been doing alot of research for this ship for for almost 2 years collecting references and material..can tell you the premium flagship tamiya kit still has issues.
Any reference would help a lot, my email is in the bottom of the description on this page. Cheers 👍
You are going to need a bigger table not a bigger boat.
I don’t like you anymore. You get all the nice things.
I just came here to read the rivet counters comments!! 😂😂 they f*kn can’t help themselves!
If you’re reading this Peter, enjoy the kit mate, I have the 1/350 Tamiya version on one of my benches right now, started, but a long way from completion due to me cleaning up some “shelf of doom” builds on another bench from a few years ago.
I thought the 1/350 was big enough. This thing is biblical! Have fun mate. 👍

A Japanese friend told me it’s pronounced “Yuh-MAH-toe/Yuh-MAH-too.” I think it’s one of those words that people say differently with their accents, like how I’ve heard Brits say “YAMA-toe.”
