This
is built straight out of the box, with just a bit of weathering.
The
base is made out of sandpaper.
As
with all Tamiya kits, the detail is right on, and all the
pieces fit together well. A no problem build. The turrent
rotates, and the gun barrels move up and down for positioning.
The kit includes the three figures.
(For
some reason the helmuts appear blue in the photo, but are
actually a light grey.)
