Plamo (プラモ puramo )
refers to the hobby of plastic modeling, and to the products of this
hobby.
In the West, the term is most often used in reference to fantasy, anime, or manga-related
objects and characters, as this type of modelling has had a
proportionately larger contingency in Japan than in the US.
However, in
Japan "puramo" refers to any and all hobby modeling done in plastic,
including military modelling, construction from pre-molded kits, "kit-bashing," Scratch building, and to pre-assembled, fully finished models acquired for decoration or collection.
