Macross Zero

Macross Zero's model kit line remains active through Hasegawa, which is re-releasing its 1/72 F-14 and MiG-29 kits while also preparing a new 1/72 VF-0A Shin Kudo Custom in GERWALK form with the Ghost Booster.

Synthesized from 2 Yomimono stories · updated Oct 16

Macross Zero is an OVA, and the only current commercial activity around it in these stories is a run of 1/72 scale plastic model kits from Hasegawa. In August 2026, Hasegawa moved to re-release its F-14 and MiG-29 fighter kits from the OVA at new prices, with both set for release on October 21, 2026. The kits carry markings for the U.N. Spacy and Anti-U.N. Alliance aircraft.

Two months later, Hasegawa announced a different kind of Macross Zero kit: a 1/72 VF-0A Shin Kudo Custom configured in GERWALK form with the Ghost Booster attached. Completed sample photos released in October 2026 show it in four colors: light gray, dark gray, clear, and blue gray for the stand. The kit is 280mm long, priced at 7,150 yen with tax, and scheduled for release on November 18, 2026.

The two announcements split the coverage. The re-release restores real-world aircraft from the OVA to the catalog at a revised price. The VF-0A kit is a new tooling, and its parts configuration locks it into the Ghost Booster build, with a Macross stand included. What is settled is that Hasegawa's Macross Zero output in this period runs to 1/72 aircraft and variable fighter kits, with release dates set for October and November 2026.
