Gladius Diorama Kit (1:500)

Even Better Than Expected!

This kit was a part of my first purchase from JRDF and I couldn’t be happier. Not only is the base print itself gorgeously detailed for such a small scale but even the container it came in is clearly carefully crafted specifically for this product. The models come well supported with struts from the printing process that really ensures they are secure within the package and not risking bouncing around or being damaged during shipping. The foam within adds to this and also helps keep the contents nice and neat inside. The models themselves are great quality. A lot of good details can be seen and the material is pretty tough. I’m a pretty clumsy person and have managed to fumble a Gladius or two without any damage to the models. The cleanup process was also very simple. I’m a novice when it comes to models like this but I was able to buy some strut trimmers from a local hobby store and had no trouble cleaning the models up. All in all, I’m a big fan of this kit and the other kits I’ve gotten. They certainly won’t be the last I buy from JRDF.

They look awesome.
