It has been over a year and a half since I've had the opportunity to review any products from Master Details so it was with some surprise that I had this one show up in the mails. As many of you are aware, Master Details is well known for its multi-media 1/32 aircrew figures and this one continues that trend. This time, it is a USAAF Bombardier dressed for European weather. The figure is sitting, ready to be placed into the nose of your next 1/32 B-25 or B-17. It will be useful in a B-24 or B-26 if one is ever released in this scale.

The kit itself is flawlessly cast and all the modeler has to do is remove the remnants of the pour stubs from the resin parts and choose a head. The body of the figure is in five pieces with a parachute added in the mix. Four heads are in cast metal and four different 'poses'. Two of them are wearing O2 masks and two are not. There is also a goggles up and down option. For the two not wearing a mask, the mask and its long line are provided separately, also in cast metal. The kit comes complete with an assembly and full color painting guide.

In all, it is a super figure and perfect for any of the big scale USAAF bombers.
