Young's newest addition to his ever growing line is the German G-Boot Crewman. The kit is sandwiched between heavy foam in his traditional sturdy black box.

The figure is comprised of 16 parts with the bust itself cast in white metal. Copper wire is included for simulation of the wiring.

The head is cast seperetly and is beautifully sculpted by Hiroyuki. The head then attaches to the shoulder assembly and the hat goes right on top.

Fantastic attention to detail can be seen in the sculpting of the chest allowing for the accessories to be attached creating more realism.

Excellent color guide is included within the kit.

Conclusion An excellent kit depicting the German G-Boot Crew with minimal flashing and clean-up needed.
 
What an absolute beauty! I can't wait to start throwing paint at mine! Is that a casting line running down through the left eye? It is slight, but could be a booger to fix. Thanks for the great review Guy! The pics of the head give a great impression of Hiroyuki's fantastic sculpt!
