[QG13] 1:350 PHOTOETCHED PARTS for Z23(40023) 1:350 ANTARCTICA OBSERVATION SHIP SOYA 3rd CORPS

Elevate the realism of your 1:350 scale Antarctica Observation Ship Soya with this comprehensive photoetched detailing set designed specifically for the 3rd Corps (Third Antarctic Expedition) version. This upgrade kit provides the fine-scale precision that plastic molding cannot match, allowing modelers to replace standard kit parts with delicate, true-to-scale metal components.

The set features a large, high-quality metal fret packed with essential structural and decorative elements. It includes intricate deck railings, safety netting for the helideck, and vertical ladders that significantly enhance the ship's silhouette. Specialized parts for the on-board aircraft are a major highlight, offering a detailed truss for the Bell 47G helicopter, along with main and tail rotors in both open and folded configurations. You will also find precision propellers for the DHC-2 Beaver and tail rotor parts for the Sikorsky S-58.

Beyond the ship's hardware, this collection brings the Antarctic expedition to life with a variety of scale figures and accessories. The set includes 11 crew members in various poses, 12 sled dogs (including the famous Taro and Jiro), and 5 penguins to populate the decks or a custom diorama. Additional details like radar equipment and sleds ensure every aspect of the 3rd Corps modification is represented with historical accuracy.
