Miniart 1/35 American Gangsters (38108)

This review is fully dedicated to Miniart 1/35 American Gangsters (38108). As the name suggests, whole kit copies something different from typical soldiers we are used to see in this size. Some of you already noted in the video-review, that it would be handy to see the same thing in 1/24 scale, but today we have only this kit. Overall idea is simple - four figurines with various items in hands. Packaging is typical for Miniart, so frames come in one plastic bag. Let's open them all and take a closer look together.

By the way, here you can read review with recent release from ICM which is in different scale.

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

Each figurine has its parts placed on the separate small frame. Overall parts division is typical for this scale, but trench coats require separate sections molded as different parts.

Note that there are no guiding elements, so you will have to be careful while joining everything together. Molding quality looks fine on all parts.

Kit also carries several frames with various weapons and equipment. You don't have to use everything at once, maybe some of those will be handy in some future builds.

Choice is rather big, but you should also check assembly manual as some positions would look fine only with certain type of gun. This manual is combined with marking guide and printed on the rear side of the box.

New figurines should be already available for purchase. It is cool to see Miniart going into unusual topics, and quality looks decent straight out of the box. Nevertheless, this particular topic/theme could be more useful in traditional car scale. Who knows, maybe the same brand will release it in the bigger size, or maybe there is a car kit coming in the same scale. :)
