ICM 1/35 BM-13-16 on G7107 Base (35595)

Today we are going to take a look at ICM 1/35 BM-13-16 on G7107 Base (35595). Well, name says it all - kit copies rocket launcher on American truck in popular scale. Such model might be an interesting solo-build as well as part of some diorama with figures. Keep in mind that figures are not included into this boxing. Packaging is typical for this brand, so all frames come in one plastic bag. Let's open it and take a closer look together.
By the way, here you can read review with unusual vehicle in the same scale.

Watch this video-review where I show all parts closer.


We are going to start with the new frame first. Here you will find all the necessary parts for the rocket launcher rack. These should be easy to work with, so there is nothing to worry about.


Next we see more parts for this launcher. Overall molding quality looks fine, and I don't think that assembly will be difficult.


Truck itself features nicely detailed engine. It would be worth thinking on how to expose this section of your model.


Front cab is divided into several panels, be sure to track the alignment during assembly. Note that doors are designed as separate parts.


This frame is given in two pieces. It is good to see plastic wheels as such parts will be easier to work with.


Rear bed won't be needed as we deal with a different version today. The same can be said about chassis bars.


You will find three sprues of this type. ICM placed rails and rockets here. Note that ammo is molded as one-piece elements with separate tail fins.


Clear frame is packed into separate plastic bag. Molding quality looks great, and parts will be used for the front cab.


Decals sheet is not that big, but printing quality looks fine. Assembly manual is typical for this brand. You can check all pages in the video-review.


New truck comes as yet another version of the famous vehicle. In my opinion this kit will be handy for modelers who were waiting to get "Katyusha" in 1/35 scale. Moreover, G7107 can be detailed even further for even more convincing appearance. Add some figures here and you will get a nice diorama project. The only thing I would recommend to be careful with - launcher rails as those might need careful alignment between each other.
