Packing
carton box

Type
of kit
gypsum and
resin castings + grass spreading
Quality
Bunker body including
interior floor and MG crew stand is very well cast of gypsum.
Surface includes nice detail of concrete casting lines. Used
material can be simply damaged so you can crate some battle
damages /hits atc./. Three resin parts are also not bad well
cast. MG shield and mount are good enough but MG 34 /based od
Hasegawa part/ is too chunky. I think more precise modeller
will replace it wit better MG 34 or 42. Plastic bag with grass
spreading is last item you can find in the box. The spreading
is not bad but I personally prefer electrostatic grass. There
is no terrain included it and you have to crate it according
to references or your own fantasy.

General Impression
& Note
The first look in the box is very good. I
suppose that the assembly of the kit will be simple and quick. I’m sure that
completed kit will be very good model of one of many similar pits still standing
on the French seashore of English Channel since WW2 times. The model itself
offers good diorama potential.
