New Arrival: Hasegawa 1/72 Kawanishi H8K2 Type 2 "Emily" Flying Boat
The majestic Kawanishi H8K2 Type 2 “Emily” Flying Boat was one of the most advanced maritime aircraft of World War II—renowned for its exceptional range, powerful defensive armament, and impressive performance in open-ocean operations. Hasegawa’s newly reissued 1/72 scale model kit captures the elegance and engineering of this massive four-engine flying boat in remarkable detail.
This kit features finely engraved panel lines, a fully detailed cockpit and interior, and options for open or closed hatches. With a wingspan stretching nearly 20 inches at 1/72 scale, the completed model makes a striking centerpiece for any aircraft collection. The Emily’s distinctive high-mounted wing and sleek hull are faithfully reproduced, making this a rewarding build for experienced modelers and aviation historians alike.
Experience one of Japan’s most iconic long-range patrol aircraft in miniature form with Hasegawa’s exceptional craftsmanship.
