This is an awesome model! It comes in pieces of course, and you have to paint it. These were my first 1/35 wwii soldiers. They are just the right size! They are big enough to paint on eyebrows easily and small enough to be smaller than 5" trees! The one standing and throwing the grenade is almost exactly 2" tall. They are so durable that I dropped one AFTER I finished it and it didn't budge! You need a good glue. All the pieces fit perfectly! It comes with about 6 grenades, 2 backpacks, 1 flame thrower, 4 guys, 2-3 knives, 1-2 shovels, 2 m1 carbines, 2 m1 garands, 1 thompson, 1 m3 grease gun, and 1 BAR. Tamiya is an awesome modeling company!!!
