German radar Würzburg FuSE 62 in 1/72 scale
Name
Wü rzburg
FuSe 62, Luftschutz series /item No. EXM 7216/
Producer
Extratech, Czech Republic
Packing
Very
esthetic carton box. All resin parts in plastic bag. Maybe it is not the
best way because some parts are very delicate and might be damaged.
Etched parts with decals in other bag.
Type
of kit
Resin kit
with photo-etched parts and decals.
Quality
Resin parts of good quality with no
bubbles. Parts from two-color resin. Most of parts are well cast. In my item
there is some resin film. In my set fenders there are the worst parts (they
are not straight). Photo-etched sheet looks well.
Instruction
sheet
Very clear,
history in three languages. Contrary to Maybach engine you have no
information about painting of the details. Producer recommended to paint
the whole model with feldgrau (probably should be panzergrau). In my
opinion the instruction doesn’t explain the way of providing energy.
Decals
Two
thunderbolts and a circle of planes on a radar dish.
General Impression
& Note
Very interesting kit with most of the parts of
excellent quality. The main errors I recorded: set included three figures, but
they rather look like Heer not Luftwaffe soldiers (uniforms). It’s a mobile
radar but the thriller hasn’t got the striker to be towed by another vehicle.
It would be better if the tires had tire tread. Finally, this is a great kit and
if you find some plans or photos it will be …!
