Tamiya 1/48 A6M2 Zero Canopy mask...


Recommended Posts

I am looking for a canopy masking set for the Tamiya 1/48 A6M2 Zero..(61016)

 

Boxart Mitsubishi A6M2 Zero Fighter (Zeke) 61016 Tamiya

 

I found the Eduard ones listed on SB..

Eduard 1/48 A6M2 Canopy Masks

 

However, I'm not sure which one to get that will fit the Tamiya kit. I would like to stick with using Eduard masks since I have good results with them on other models.

 

Which Eduard set should I use? I see there is a set for a A6M5 version. Will this fit the A6M2 canopy? I would think the canopies would be the same.

The Tamiya A6M5 is a relatively recent kit, while the A6M2 is decades older, so I wouldn't bank on the canopies being the same in detail. Of the options shown at the Sprue Brothers page, the set for the Tamiya A6M3 (EX318) would IMHO be the best choice since that kit is apparently a close descendant of the A6M2 kit. Although out of stock at SB, there's one listing for it on Ebay, and Hobbyworld USA seems to have it in stock.
