To our eyes this a box with little value except for the nice Forward Command Post. Figures included are nothing special, the German infantry is not bad, but long ago beat by newer depictions. The Airfix British Paratroopers is a really old and not good set. Same happen to models, the old 1/76 Sherman and Tiger are of little value nowdays.
