THE PARTS
There are 20 resin parts in the package - 10 bases and 10 searchlights. There is one small photo-etch fret, which has 50 parts, 5 for each searchlight. The resin parts are nicely cast. The photo-etch parts have relief etching.

INSTRUCTIONS
Instructions are a single small piece of paper. Parts are shown on one side, step by step directions to assemble a searchlight are on the back. The directions are clear and easy to follow. The only thing you'll have to do is research which Kriegsmarine ships carried 110cm searchlights, so you can use these upgrade parts.
CONCLUSIONS
This a sharply done set of searchlights. They should provide a nice upgrade from injection molded parts on your Kriegsmarine heavy units. This is North Star Models set NSA 350050, Kriegsmarine WW2 110cm searchlight (1/350). The set retails for about $8.00 USD, and is available from many of our fine sponsors. Recommended!

Thanks to North Star Models for the review sample.
