"SF3D calls R2 D2... Over..."
La série SF3D de NITTO est à l'origine une série d'articles parus depuis 1982 dans la revue HOBBY JAPAN et dont une partie fut condensée en 1983 en un numéro spécial. Un autre numéro est édité en 1985...
L'histoire semble concerner les efforts de la SHUTORAL DEMOKRATISCHE REPUBLIK pour s'emparer du monde et en particulier de l'Australie à la fin des années 2800. L'ensemble n'est pas sans rappeler la célèbre BD "Le secret de l'Espadon" et utilise une technologie "futuriste" au parfum rétro et très nostalgique des années 1940. Apparemment, c'est toujours la guerre entre l'Allemagne et la Grande Bretagne...
La série de maquettes au nombre de 25 environ - à différents échelles, ressort de temps en temps en petit nombre. Depuis, d'autres kits en plastique injecté ont vu le jour. C'est un ensemble de modèles parmi les plus fouillés du genre. Plusieurs échelles existent. Du 1/76ème et 1/20ème du début, on trouve maintenant (du moins difficilement en France) du 1/16ème et du 1/35ème - idéal pour mettre avec des panzers - et deux scaphandres au 1/6ème! Depuis des résines sont sorties, dont des têtes et personnages, et de nombreuses conversions sont crées, poussant loin l'originalité comme savent le faire les japonais...
Depuis cet article, la gamme s'est élargie et l'on trouve désormais des scaphandres et véhicules à l'échelle 1/35 ainsi que des figurines et accessoires. A noter un scaphandre à l'échelle 1/6ème !!
NITTO's SF3D series was originally a series of articles published since 1982 in HOBBY JAPAN magazine, part of which was condensed into a special issue in 1983. Another issue was published in 1985...
The story seems to concern the efforts of the SHUTORAL DEMOKRATISCHE REPUBLIK to take over the world, and Australia in particular, at the end of the 2800's. The whole thing is reminiscent of the famous comic strip "The Secret of Swordfish", and uses "futuristic" technology with a retro, 1940's nostalgic flavor. Apparently, Germany and Great Britain are still at war...
The series of models, of which there are around 25 in various scales, is occasionally produced in small numbers. Since then, other injection-molded plastic kits have appeared. These models are among the most detailed of their kind. Several scales are available. From the 1/76th and 1/20th of the early days, we now find (at least with difficulty in France) 1/16th and 1/35th - ideal for use with panzers - and two 1/6th scale suits! Since then, resins have been released, including heads and figures, and numerous conversions have been created, pushing the limits of originality as the Japanese know how to do...
Since this article, the range has expanded to include 1/35th-scale suits and vehicles, as well as figurines and accessories. And don't forget the 1/6th scale diving suit !!
