{"product_id":"british-prince-of-wales-kit","title":"Tamiya 1\/350 HMS Prince of Wales – WWII British Battleship Model Kit","description":"\u003cp\u003e\nHMS Prince of Wales played a pivotal role early in WWII, engaging the German battleship Bismarck and participating in several major naval operations. By late 1941, she was deployed to the Pacific, where she met her tragic fate: sunk by Japanese air attacks during the Battle of Malaya alongside HMS Repulse. Her loss marked a turning point in naval warfare, signaling the end of the battleship era and the rise of airpower as the dominant force at sea.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nThis 1\/350 scale model kit recreates Prince of Wales as she appeared during her final mission in December 1941. Distinct differences from her sister ship, King George V—such as the unique bridge layout and anti-aircraft configuration—are faithfully captured. The set also includes a Supermarine Walrus seaplane and two aircraft representing her attackers: one Japanese G3M and one G4M bomber. These additions make it easy to create a historically grounded display right out of the box.\n\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\nA dedicated display stand with a nameplate is included, allowing your finished build to take its place as a meaningful centerpiece. For modelers who appreciate warships with deep historical resonance and enjoy slow, patient craftsmanship, this kit offers a rewarding project with both technical detail and emotional weight.\n\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tamiya","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50347273486583,"sku":"MH_TAM78011_HH","price":86.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0907\/3324\/8759\/files\/39e6519a9795682b8d6255d60a05a267.jpg?v=1765417816","url":"https:\/\/checkout.miniaturehobbies.com\/products\/british-prince-of-wales-kit","provider":"Miniature Hobbies","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
