The Mitsubishi Zero was the primary Japanese Naval Fighter in World War II. It was used in the attack on Pearl Harbor and in Kamikaze attacks near the end of the war. Allied pilots were astounded by its maneuverability, and it was very successful in combat until the Allies devised tactics to utilize their advantage in firepower and driving speed. The A6M was given the Allied code name "Zeke," but was generally called Zero. Allied pilots referred to all Japanese fighters as Zeros, but the term is correctly applied only to the Mitsubishi A6M. 2011 is the 70th anniversary of the Pearl Harbor attack. To commemorate the event, Witty Wings is completing the "Zero" Japanese strike force collection by releasing the Zeros from 4 other Japanese carriers, starting with the Shokaku Group. A limited edition of 600 pieces, each comes with an individually numbered card.

First of all the purchasing experience was a breeze! So helpful! The attention to detail is unparalleled. If I had to compare to other die cast models, Witty Wings is hands down the best. I appreciate that there aren’t any obvious paint lines and plastic tab inserts where parts are connected to the plane etc. It literally looks like a mini-scaled down model you’d see in a museum or something. I’m definitely going to buy as many Witty Wings models as possible.
