Volks Orient Hero Series The 20th Anniversay Commemoration

Released date: 1992

Scale: 200mm-250mm

Material & no. of pieces: 18 resin and 1 white metal


Oda Nobunaga was the initiator of the unification of Japan under the shogunate in the late 16th century, which ruled Japan until the Meiji Restoration in 1868. He was also a major daimyo during the Sengoku period of Japanese history.


This a Samurai kit that I have in my grey army. Comes in a sturdy cardboad box. The Volk's Oda kit is one of the rarest kit. I thought the Calder Craft Mounted Taisho white metal is huge wait until you compare it with the Oda kit. The Oda kit is about 1/8, 1/9 scale. One of the largest mtd. Samurai kit in the market.




Here are the casting parts.
