Italeri
420
If
this dog could bark, you'd have something of value. While laudable
in its intent to offer French and British items, as well as German,
the castings have thick detailing and none of the finesse found
in DML and Tamiya accessory weapons sets. The American-made weapons
(standard issue for the French during WWII) are good, though it
should be noted that the M2 carbine is a post-war model first seen
in Korea (the telltale sign is the bayonet mount). I'm not sure
of the lineage or French weapons, whether they too are post-war
or not. The German guns have all been reproduced much better elsewhere.
About the only thing of note are the French Adrian helmets, but
I think you can find much better versions in resin from Ultracast.
Leave
this box on the shelf, or buy it for the kids to play with.
