It is with great sadness and heavy hearts that we are to inform that our founder and president of Model Factory Hiro, Misao Hiro, has passed away on Tuesday, June 20th, 2023 due to illness. He was at the age of 63.
We would like to express our deepest gratitude to all of our business partners, distributors, and customers around the world who have purchased our products, and we would like to express our deepest appreciation for your kindness and support during his lifetime.
A viewing and funeral was held with immediate relatives.
Future plans regarding the company including the appointment of a successor representative will be made in a separate statement in the future.
Mr. Hiro was well known for his love and passion for cars and car modeling, and sought to find new ways to add creativity to his kits. Over the years he has passed down his passions and design philosophies to our employees, and all the staff at MFH will do our utmost to carry on his passions and philosophies into our designs and products without change in the future.
We look forward to your continued support in the future.

This is really sad news, I am truly bummed about his loss
Misao Hiro was 63 years old CEO and a huge driving force in modelling production of multimedia racing kits
He produced some amazing car and motorcycle kits with resin, white metal and styrene all combined into pure art.
I fear for the future of that company with the loss of such a prominent and passionate commander. I hope MFH can be maintained in Japanese hands so the quality remains high and products continue to roll out.
