Historical Figures of Japan

This expertly produced title by Toshiichi Matsuoka depicts in full colour a selection of superb figure models throughout the ages. Figures are divided into sections featuring The Dark Ages, German Knights, Ango-Scottish wars, Hundred years war, Medieval Knights, Napoleonic, WW-I, WW-II and Movies and Fantasy. The standards are superb, as are the topics in this elegant coffee table book. As a bonus there are chapters on model figure companies, painting and building and groundwork techniques. All sections (except the introduction and postscript) have both English and Japanese text.
