VP1881 engine and detail set: It looks nice, but with opening up the lockers, you'd want to know what was in each of them. Get the tech manual (Easy1productions.com) and it'll tell you what went in each locker. I can't comment on the engine compartment...
VP1879 M26 Storage looks ridiculous to me. Not that some of it is useful, its just that the items stored like that could 1) easily fall off and 2) have a loose shell jam the turret 3) block the vision of the turret crew (who leaves so much junk on the turret top?).
Are they a good value? Sometimes yes, sometimes no. I think their recent Jagdtiger interior is the best on the market for that kit. Some of their other stuff is just garbage to me. Just ask around about any particular set's usefulness before spending money, I'd say. |
