MG pit type Tobruk in 1/72 scale

 

Name Kulometné postavení - typ TOBRUK /Item No. F72/032/
Producer  Samek Models, Czech Republic
Packing carton box with color picture on the top
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.
