Miniart 1/35 US Repairmen (53047)

This review will be focused on Miniart 1/35 US Repairmen (53047). As you can guess from the boxart, set features four figures molded in popular scale. Moreover, manufacturer includes various items which can be used with those soldiers. Repairmen sets were released for different countries by Miniart, so it will be interesting to see what is included here. Overall packaging is typical for this brand, and all frames are sealed into one plastic bag. Let's cut it and check everything together.

By the way, here you can read review with German figures in the same scale.

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

First three frames carry figurine parts. Overall design is typical for this scale, so you can expect separate hands, legs and one-piece torso.

Kit also features fuel drums, just like it is shown on the boxart. Note that figure parts don't have any guiding elements inside.

Jerry cans are also here, and might be handy for some diorama ideas with this kit.

This toolbox from Miniart is already well-known because it was included in some previous releases too. Nevertheless, it is still looking great and should be fun to assemble.

Yes, there will be also tools out of PE, so be ready to use tweezers with those tiny elements.

Decals are printed in Cartograf. Overall quality looks great, and those stencils would be useful for more realistic appearance of the items. Assembly manual and marking guide for figures are printed on the rear side of the box.

Tools and other items assembly manual comes as the separate printout in black-and-white.

New release should be already available for purchase. In my opinion it is a great addition for some repair diorama in 1/35 scale. Moreover, they can be assembled even as the main object on its own, and you will still get a nice result. Overall quality looks fine out of the box, so you just need to decide on paintwork and weathering. :)
