Looks like a useful set for modern subjects.The "Iron Fence" elements appear quite realistic, but they overlooked a small detail:In their real life counterparts,The "male" upper end connectors have a turn in them so the fences have to be at about a 30 degree angle to each other to be connected. When the fences are then pulled out straight, that little turn creates a kind of a lock, so that spectators can't just lift straight up and take apart the fence. This could probably be fixed with some careful twisting, or replacing with sprue or wire.

Until my little figures come alive and start to riot, I'm one of the people who can live with that error:)
I love sets like this, they bring life to a model with so little work. I'll be buying a set or 6.
