Description The Maori Village was never issued by Micromodels.
It was intended that there would be a three model Maori set, with marketing timed to coincide with the interest generated by a Royal visit to New Zealand.
In the event, the only model actually issued was S XV, the Maori Ceremonial War Canoe.
The third model, never published by Micromodels, was the Maori Assembly House.

A single sheet leaflet, slightly less than A4 size, was produced by Micromodels. It illustrated amongst other items, the Maori set as it would have looked when assembled.
In the surviving Micromodels archive, there is no record or any evidence that the artwork for this model was ever started.

MicromodelsUSA has released the Maori Village (Maori Pa) in 2014. They also released the Meeting House (Maori Assembly House) and re-produced the War Canoe.
