Review Summary

The reviews highlight that the kits are generally appreciated for their detailed exterior designs and ease of construction, making them quick and appealing additions to scenes. However, some criticisms include a lack of roof details, window treatments, and interior alignment features, with certain kits missing prefabricated elements or decals that were present in older versions. Overall, while the basic construction and customization potential are positives, there is a noted desire for more detailed features in some aspects.

Great Basic Kit

By: mebetz (Las Vegas, NV.)

This is a Woodland Scenics kit, so the details are great. It is a basic kit with a few more parts than some of the other basic kits. The outside walls are very detailed. The only reason I gave it a 4 star is the lack of ANY roof details or ANY window treatments. Pros: quick, easy addition to your scenes and looks great. Cons: Other than molded details on outside walls, there are none.

Corner Drug Store

By: Brien Mitchum

This is a nice kit for the cost, basic construction is pretty easy and this can be built in a few hours if your looking for a project to take on that is quick. This building is set up for a corner lot. Add primer you can paint with craft paint and come close to the color on the picture or do your own scheme. You can also add your own signs and details like mini blinds and curtains.

Design Preservation cuts corners

By: terp8888

No prefab roof to aid in squaring the building, no interior alignment tabs on walls, no dry transfer decals for windows and walls, featureless polystyrene roof. But if you can get the walls square and flush the brick and cornice and other stonework can make an attractive and realistic building. I have my eye on a couple of other Design Preservation buildings and will probably get them as I like the period they portray but I do feel that there older stock was betterand would pay a little more for the previous features.
