Could be very useful! Hope they did the concrete texture in a convincing way. Don't like them as lamppost but still, then you can use these lamps directly attached to a building, or a "steel" pole of own fabrication.

Cool, I think I'll give them a try to enhance my Nagmachon street scene...

They look good. I actually hope they don't overdo the texture thing. We're talking 1/35th scale. It's like the way wood grain is usually overdone in styrene.

These kinds of concrete poles were used along roads in France, ie; Normandy. Minus the lamps, of course. I bought a resin casting by some resin company, the pole was in two parts, and, of course, the two parts didn't match up!

Excellent! I've been after some of these for years as they're pretty standard for France as Biggles mentioned. I'd only seen the resin ones and I'm not paying that price for something that's quite incidental to the diorama. I'll pick up a couple of boxes of these for my Normandy dios as I have a couple planned. Nice choice Miniart!
