Did Doyusha ever produce a 1/350 or 1/300 IJN Shinano? I seem to remember one.

Conversion of 1/350 Tamiya Yamato to the Shinano was discussed here:

Surprising we haven't seen one yet in 1/350 perhaps from Tamiya

Back in the 1970s Nichimo did one in 1/300. They even did a whole series of Japanese aircraft in 1/300.

The Doyusha 1/250 also is listed in my ancient 1982 Japanese hobby catalog.
