In the film, the gunship was piloted by protagonist Nausicaä and Mito while they were defending the Valley of the Wind.
The LED-emitting gunship and Mehve/Möwe glider are faithful recreations of the aircraft found in Hayao Miyazaki’s beloved 1984 film.
The scaled model fits in neatly behind the gunship by means of a clear brace attached to a joint pedestal.
The folks over at Premium Bandai have let us experience a child-like excitement yet again with the latest kit in their Sozo Galleria (“Imagination Galleria”) series of quality models: the gunship and Mehve glider from the pre-Studio Ghibli anime film Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind.
