This is a '3D anatomical chart' of the largest monument in human history.

The 'Tower of the Sun,' created as the symbol of the Japan World Exposition (EXPO'70) and still standing today as a god-like figure with arms wide open, has been meticulously modeled. Its interior houses the 'Tree of Life,' where creatures from ancient to modern times crowd together, and its arms are built with a complex truss structure. This plastic model kit brings to life Taro Okamoto's masterpiece—a unique fusion of art and architecture—as it appears today, over 50 years after its construction. It is a one-of-a-kind kit that allows you to observe the monument from various angles, perfect for both assembly and painting. Enjoy it as an exclusive 3D anatomical chart.
