What kind of image do you have of future agriculture? Drones flying in the sky, machines automatically plowing fields...... such sci-fi-like scenes are already becoming a reality. The symbol of this evolution is the “Robot Tractor.”

And what we are introducing this time is a plastic model that realistically recreates that cutting-edge machine: the “1/35 Yanmar Tractor YT5113A 'Robot Tractor'.”

It is not just a model. It is an item that tickles intellectual curiosity, allowing you to experience how much next-generation agriculture has evolved in the palm of your hand.

This kit is impressive not only for its sophisticated appearance but also for the elaborate craftsmanship of its details. Equipment is firmly mounted on the roof, and the safety lamps extending from it, as well as the front and rear safety sensors, are realistically recreated.

These parts are made of resin, allowing you to feel the differences in gloss and texture. It is not merely a model of a vehicle; it is structured with the persuasiveness of a “machine designed to actually operate.” You cannot help but be impressed by the technological love poured into this small tractor.

The “Robot Tractor” that served as the basis for this model is not just a cool-looking futuristic machine. It is a true beacon of hope for overcoming challenges facing Japanese agriculture, such as serious labor shortages and an aging population.

It is amazing to learn that actual robot tractors can perform about 90% of field work fully automatically, and recently, it has even become possible for one person to operate two units. In the sense that you can understand such innovative technology while gazing at it closely on your desk, I feel this plastic model is truly a hobby for learning.

Furthermore, when discussing the appeal of this model, the package art is indispensable. The illustration by Mr. Tankro Kato brilliantly bridges the gap between reality and fiction. The moment you lay eyes on it, there is a level of realism that makes you mistake it for the real thing.

Combined with the high level of perfection of the contents, it possesses the power to excite you as an “entrance” even before you open the box. Models that make your heart dance even before you start building them are surprisingly rare.

This “1/35 Yanmar Tractor YT5113A” is not just a plastic model of agricultural machinery. It is a unit filled with technology, the future, and a passion for agriculture. While assembling it, you can be amazed that “such technology actually exists” and feel a positive sense of “maybe there's something I can do too.”

This is an item that I definitely want people who are interested in agriculture to pick up, as well as those who want to connect with society and technology through plastic models.
