When you think of Honda’s Super Cub, it’s the iconic Japanese moped everyone has seen at least once. To celebrate its 60th anniversary, a scale model faithfully recreating this commemorative edition has arrived in 1/12 scale. Based on the actual “60th Anniversary” model released in 2018, the vivid red color scheme is reproduced using dedicated molded parts. From the moment you open the box, you can feel the special aura that sets it apart from regular models.

This kit requires no paint or glue for assembly. But don’t be fooled into thinking it’s just “easy.” Each part is pre-colored appropriately, and applying the color-separated realistic stickers allows you to faithfully reproduce fine details like logos and patterns. From the red logo on the back of the seat to the 60th anniversary emblem with a display base, all the unique anniversary features are carefully included, and the finished result is impressively detailed.

Even though assembly is simple, there’s no compromise on movement or details. The handlebars and tires are movable, and the seat can open and close. The stand can be positioned up or down, letting you enjoy subtle pose adjustments beyond just display. The one-piece molded cowl and fenders, created with a slide mold, achieve both visual realism and ease of assembly beautifully.

This anniversary model is packed with special features not found in the standard version, including a seat color matching the leg shield, a black-finished carrier, and emblems accented with red highlights. The display base is custom-designed, allowing you to showcase the finished bike securely. The way light reflects from different angles creates a realism that feels beyond what you’d expect from 1/12 scale.

This kit’s design appeals to everyone from beginners to seasoned modelers. While easy to assemble, the finished product has a commanding presence. Building this piece of Honda history with your own hands feels almost like connecting with the Super Cub’s legacy. It’s a must-have not only for motorcycle enthusiasts but also for Honda fans in general.
