Once again, ICM keeps releasing new stuff showing to the world  their enormous work capacity for producing and launching new products onto the market at a very high rate despite being at war.

 

 

Today, we will take a look in the 1:35 Feldküche

 In the box art, you can see 4 cooks peeling potatoes, preparing meat, chopping wood and preparing the stove.

 We'll see if this is really what is offered.

 

But before that, the mobile kitchen is the same kit that we can get with the AHN truck, the AHN Gulaschkanone model kit, that we already review  it (click here).

 

Beside the kitchen itself, the G2 sprue (kitchen accessories) is the sama exact sprue.

 

 

 

 

 

Even the decal sheet on this release is exactly the same.

 

So, I invited you to check the Gulas review.

 

 

Now moving to the cooks.

 And the answer to the initial question is yes.

 You get four cooks in the different poses, as in the box art.

 

 

 

As usual there`s no assembly instructions are given for the figures… you don’t get a schematic drawings with the parts, but, as I said in previous reviews, if you look carefully we see the parts numbers on the figures. So there´s is assembly instructions.

 

 

For the field kitchen the instrcutions are comprehensive and easy to follow.

 

 

 

 

The figures have the torso in one piece without arms or legs as they are separated for the rest of the body.

 

The molding is very nice, with no flash at all and very good subtle details in very difficult parts like the hands and faces.

The soldier cutting up a potato or something similar does have a potato (or something) in one hand and a knife in the other hands!

Brilliant detail for plastic mold.

 

Theses ICM figures are getting better and better.

 

You will also get all the accessories that they are using in the box art, as table, axes, wood, bucket.

 

 

 

Conclusion:

These figures set with mobile kitchen is a fantastic little set with tons of details giving the modeler, several option to work with, all together, only one figure, a mix of figures and simple can use any other model with it! It goes well with any 1:35 AFV model or some can also be use with some 1:35 Aircraft that are popping now.

The details specially on face and hands are very good really, one of the best there is in plastic injection, if not the best ones.

 

A great kit with very good detail OOB. Downside: the colors indication.

 

My sincere thanks to ICM for making this model.
