Sand Bag Set

This kit's sand bags are not an 'all in one' solution. They are hard plastic and don't feature any 'end' pieces so you can terminate the two sides of your sandbag 'wall'. If you want those, they are easy enough to model yourself out of sculpey, but it's a disappointment to me that a company like Tamiya would model a kit with this subject and not include them. The sand bags take quite a bit of painting to get them to look realistic for your diorama.

Sand bags are kind of simplistic in nature, and those in this kit would work decently in their intended function and use. The molding technique has them hollow in nature, with open undersides, which kind of limits their use to stacking or placement upon some type of surface that obscures the open undersides. If exposure of the underside of the pieces is not an issue, this kit is a tad less than half the price of Italeri, and I would recommend it to others.

Makes my anti-tank gun look very good hiding behind these.
