Made in Poland, I have heard outside sources say YAY and NAY to the manufacturer. However, just getting back into model building and enjoying 1/35 scale military miniatures, these figures are a nice challenge. Supposedly you don't want to use too much glue to assemble as the plastic is soft. I use Tamiya Extra Thin and all seems fine. I like all the accessories and the figures are nicely detailed/molded. Yes, I see a figure with some flash to work off but...I'm up to the challenge and can't complain as the cost for the figure set is reasonable. I'm looking at other MiniArt kits as I like their selection.
