In this review you will learn more about ICM 1/48 I-153 Luftwaffe with Pilots (48094). Today's kit comes as the combo and in one box you will get nice aircraft model together with some suitable figures. Add some diorama base and it will become something a bit more sophisticate than just boring solo aircraft build. Overall packaging is typical, so sprues come in several plastic bags. In total there are169 parts for assembly of the aircraft and 41 parts for 7 figurines. Let's open them all and take a closer look together.
By the way, here you can read review with winter version of this aircraft.

Watch this video-review where I show all parts even closer.
I suggest we start with figurines. As you remember, we get them molded in 1/48 scale, so overall design is slightly different from what we are used to see in bigger sizes.
Top and bottom wings can be found on the next frame. Both come as one-piece elements and should be easy to install. Engine also looks great out of the box.
Separate frames are dedicated to various armament. You can install some of those bombs on your aircraft.
On the fuselage halves you can notice that the left one is molded together with tail fin and rudder. Cowling will have to be assembled separately.
Clear frame comes in its own plastic bag, so nothing will get scratches. Overall molding quality looks great.
Decals sheet is not that big, but you will get all necessary symbols here. Printing quality looks great and application won't be a problem. You can see all options on the photo below.
Assembly manuals are typical for this brand. I show all pages in the video-review.
New I-153 should be already available for purchase. In my opinion it is another great release from the well-known brand. One box will bring you all necessary parts together with some figurines. Such combo is a great option for some diorama ideas. Overall quality also look great, and assembly process should be easy.
