Gladiator (Bomvol Und Zionel)

By Bomvol Und Zionel, I was informed by our admin that this is one of the earliest resin kits released in WF. Its quality is very good, with virtually no flash on the main body and little bit of seamlines running thru the other parts. Considering its an old kit, its very good. This kit has the laser part, and additional notes on how to get brass tubes to make the tri-tube rocket launcher. The instructions strangely shows the assembly of the tri-tube rocket launcher and not the included laser.

Contents (resin parts, 4 page instructions, additional readme on the tri-tube launcher and decals)
Off-white colored Resin which is a very light resin. No multimedia included though.

The additional instructions on the tri-tube launcher and the included decals. Those of us who have the 1/35 Hobbybase Gladiator 'toy' will notice the 'water' label. I personally dislike that label as it does not seem to fit the kit at all.
