| THE PARTS | |||||||||
|
The parts arrive in a plastic clamshell container. Inside is one long print raft, with eight Mk IV PomPom directors. The directors are printed as one piece, and include the type 282 radar antennas. Overall, the detail looks good. Each of the directors has seats and footrests for the operators, along with finely printed Type 282 radar antennas.

There are no instructions. If you go to the
product page on the Swordfish website, you'll find general instructions
on how to remove the parts from the print raft.

accessory sets from many of the major navies, including these Royal Navy
PomPom directors. Overall, the set is nicely printed, with some good
detail. Another bonus is the fact that there are eight directors
included in the set. Overall, this is another a solid release from
Swordfish. Recommended.
