The wind Mashin, and the third piece of the dragon
Fujinmaru is the wind-themed Mashin of the Wataru line, the counterpart to the thunder god Raijinmaru, and it rounds out Bandai's current snap-fit Wataru trio. This is the First Time Limited edition, which is the one to get: it packs a bonus set of original parts that combine with the bonus parts from Ryujinmaru and Kirinmaru to build a larger armoured dragon across the three kits. Moulded in colour with metallic gold detailing, it looks the part straight off the runner.
Build difficulty
Fujinmaru goes together on Bandai's touch-gate, snap-fit system, so parts pull free by hand and no glue or paint is needed for a standard build. It sits at the easiest end of the range, a genuine one-sitting build and a good first kit for a younger or new builder. No tools are strictly required, though a pair of nippers gives cleaner runner removal.
Technical highlights
Fujinmaru carries twin swords that store in a back-mounted sheath, so the weapons display cleanly whether drawn or stowed. The head and select parts are moulded in metallic gold, so the colour separation carries the look without any painting. As the First Time Limited release it includes the bonus original-parts sprue for the three-kit dragon combination. Bandai hasn't published a part count or an assembled height for this release, so we've kept the specs here to what's actually confirmed rather than guessing.

What to watch for
We haven't found independent builder reviews for this specific kit yet, so we can't pass on verified fit-and-finish feedback. General note for a small snap kit like this: the metallic gold parts can pick up fingerprints, so handle them with clean hands, and keep the bonus original-parts sprue with the box if you plan to build the three-kit dragon later.
Builder tip: a light panel line on the recessed detail sharpens the look without any paint.
Build notes
No cement or paint required for a standard build. A pair of nippers is the only tool you really need, and it's a single-sitting build well suited to beginners. This is the First Time Limited edition, so it includes the bonus parts for the three-kit dragon combination.
