Space Battleship Yamato Kits
I never watched the original version, but the remake of Space Battleship Yamato in the Space Battleship Yamato 2199 and Space Battleship Yamato 2205 (and now 3199) series (which is really one long series) which came out in the 2010's was really great. Some fabulous ship designs and transplanted WWII naval warfare tactics to sci-fi fantasy.
Worth watching!

Model List
This is the main 1/1000 model release list that I am interested in. It is not an exhaustive list, but I've tried to pull together all of the information on each of these kits, including example images, painting guides, as well as my build process and completed photos (where available!).
I initially placed a backorder for all of these models in early 2025 with HLJ.com, but after more than 6 months none of them had received any additional stock, so I started to hunt down old stock on auction sites and via proxy buying services for Japan (I have used buyee.jp several times prior to this for electronics and models).
In September 2025 I was able to track down all four of the Garmillas Warship sets (#1 to #4). After that I started to pick up most of the older (~2013-2014) releases from sellers on JDirectAuctions, available to international buyers using a proxy like https://buyee.jp - when the later 3199 releases came out (Yamato 3199, Asuka, Hyuga) I bought them as-and-when they were released, knowing that once they go out of stock Bandai doesn't tend to do reprinting very often (if at all) - unlike Gundam kits which get reprinted almost constantly.

Bonus Models
This is a list of which models are included as bonus items in the main 1/1000 kit releases, above.
These are mostly items that are not available to purchase as individual kits. I'm not including things like the 1/1000 fighters that are included with the carriers and battleships, as they are part of the main kit itself (i.e. to display on the flight deck / launcher), nor am I listing other 1/1000 ships that are not the main kit (e.g. the inclusion of matching-scale destroyers alongside a battleship).
These were mostly (but not always) released in the same size of similar kits from the mecha-collection list.
Fighter Collection (1/72 scale)
The 1/72 scale models are limited to a (very) small number of fighters shown in the series.
Mecha Collection Models
Released in smaller scale than the main 1/1000 (capital ships) or 1/72 (fighters) kits, the “Mecha Colle” sets are smaller, easier to build versions of the main Yamato ships. They don't have a stated scale, but most of the fighters are approximately the same size-and-scale; larger (capital) ships vary. These are pretty much supposed to be “fits to the size of the box” scale - with all boxes being the same size.
Mr.Color Paints
Gunze, aka Mr Hobby / Mr Color produced a range of pre-mixed paints in the exact shades needed for the various Earth and Garmillas ship designs from the show. They are hard to track down now, but I've listed them here for reference.
