KIT #: 35076
PRICE: $8.95  from www.scale-model-kits.com
DECALS: Included
REVIEWER: Scott Van Aken
NOTES:  

 

This is one of those things that diorama people love. The kit has six identical sprues that offer a case, powder and two different shell types. I'm assuming one is armor piercing and the other is high explosive. The cases have all the proper compartmentalization and partitions that you would have found with the actual item. The molding on these sprues is superb. No molding glitches with seam lines that are barely noticeable so clean up will be a breeze.

Instructions are printed on the back of the box. This includes color information using a variety of paint brands. There are also color images of the munitions and boxes with the boxes apparently either in unpainted wood or dark green. The set includes decals for the rounds as well as the usual stencils on the box.

With fewer than 20 parts per unit, a short assembly line will have these built up in no time and add a lot of interest to your next diorama using this size of munitions.
