【Legend of the Galactic Heroes】 Reproducing the pure white body in 1/3000 Scale! Brünhild, whose crest can be replaced in 2 types with molds, starts accepting pre-orders!

“Speaking of Legend of the Galactic Heroes, as expected this beautiful battleship cannot be left out!” The featured item responding to such fans' expectations is “Galactic Empire Flagship Brünhild.” From the immortal sci-fi work “Legend of the Galactic Heroes” that has fascinated many people over many years, the beloved ship of Reinhard von Lohengramm, known as an ever-victorious genius, appeared as the second in the series. The greatest feature, above all, is the imposing size of approximately 350mm. You can thoroughly appreciate at hand the pure white vessel that radiated an overwhelming presence in the show. Among numerous space battleships, Brünhild is a special existence drifting a unique elegance. Differing from warships that push sharp intimidation to the front, the point hiding immense combat power within an elegant silhouette is irresistible.

Brünhild, reaching as much as approximately 1,000m in total length in the world of the story. This product reproducing that giant battleship in 1/3000 scale is finished into a size worth seeing with an actual length of approximately 350mm. For those who thought “Isn't 35cm quite a presence for a model?”, that is exactly right. While being a size firmly asserting itself when displayed, being able to gaze at the beautiful outline of the entire ship is the charm. What we want to pay attention to particularly is the smooth streamlined form drawing a line with the rugged image of general space battleships. A figure just like a white creature swimming gracefully through outer space, to the extent that you seem likely to forget it is a combat vessel. Being able to enjoy the majesty held by giant vessels and the beauty of refined designs at the same time would be the real pleasure unique to this model.

To deeply know Brünhild's charm, backgrounds surrounding its birth are also indispensable. This ship is a newly constructed battleship bestowed by Emperor Friedrich IV when Reinhard was promoted to full admiral at merely 18 years old. Befitting the genius commander running up to the peak of the military at a young age, it was truly a special single ship. What's more, it was not a mere luxurious dedicated ship, but also carried the important role of a prototype battleship looking toward next-generation warships of the Galactic Empire. While slightly smaller than conventional battleships, it is a design without compromise even in actual combat capabilities, equipped with excellent defense performance and powerful firepower. If a fan who knows Reinhard's brilliant active performance, merely seeing this pure white ship silhouette, wouldn't you bring numerous fierce battles and the flow of grand history to mind?

“Why does Brünhild have such a smooth shape?” Actually, clear meanings as a warship are put into that graceful exterior. Coating by newly developed materials is applied to the ship body, adopting a structure to effectively prevent beam attacks and such fired from enemy ships. In other words, that characteristic streamlined shape is not a decoration merely to improve appearance. It is the result of a rational design making beauty and defense performance compatible. Furthermore, this technical philosophy is inherited even by vessels of the Galactic Empire built later. Thinking so, Brünhild can be said to be an existence indicating a new directionality in Imperial fleet vessel design at the same time as being a flagship symbolizing a single hero, can't it?

Attention is also directed to specifications expanding fun as a model. In this product, 2 types of crests applied to the ship body are prepared, made to be reproducible by replacing mold parts. Being able to express down to detailed differences would be a delightful point for fans wanting to cherish the worldview of the work. Furthermore, a dedicated base and vessel plate convenient for display are attached as well. The ship name recorded on the vessel plate is a specification capable of selecting 3 types of notations with decals. By having consideration for such details, not only merely completing it, but the fun of pursuing your favorite display style is born too. If displaying it in a favorite place, you seem likely to taste a feeling as if that spot alone became an exhibition room for the Galactic Empire fleet.

The ship name Brünhild is derived from the goddess Brynhildr, a representative existence of the Valkyries appearing in Norse mythology. Through that mysterious name, pure white ship body, and the presence of the hero Reinhard overlapping, a unique narrativity is born in this battleship. This time's 1/3000 scale model is an item condensing such charms into approximately 350mm three-dimensional sculpting. The time letting thoughts wander to grand battles unfolded with the galaxy as their stage while gazing at the elegant hull will surely become exceptional for fans. Not to mention those who love the world of “Legend of the Galactic Heroes,” it is a single ship we want even those collecting SF battleship models of graceful designs to pay attention to by all means.
