INFORMATION
On February 23, 1975, at around 6:30 p.m., two elementary school children playing near a vineyard in the vicinity of Kamimachi housing complex in Kofu City, Yamanashi Prefecture, witnessed an orange object flying overhead and subsequently encountered what appeared to be an alien. Due to multiple other sightings and the presence of highly credible physical evidence such as landing marks, this incident became nationally famous as one of Japan's "Three Great UFO Incidents."
"Kofu Incident Alien ver.ZO" is a plastic model based on a sculpture created by sculptor Genzo Ihara as an example for "Hobby Japan HMS Fantasy Model World UMA -Unidentified Mysterious Animal-" (published February 27, 2024). While capturing the characteristics and key points of eyewitness accounts, it incorporates Ihara's unique interpretation, resulting in a retro-futuristic, somewhat nostalgic, eerie yet endearing and distinctive design.
