Thanks!

It will be nice if it include check point charlie.

You could always use it with the trump figure from the Meng Abrams kit

That sure is different, we just need some of the concrete towers now

30th anniversary coming up?

I've gathered all the parts for a Soviet tank, with the intention of doing a Checkpoint Charlie dio. This release will certainly help. The buildings will be the most difficult part. Then, the US tanks.

The wall was built in many stages. This represents the final stage, not suitable for the early sixties at all. I will certainly use it though.

From my time there:

Having also been there both before (1989) and after (2010, etc) I can tell you with some conviction that the graffiti samples are LAME. The Before examples weren't political enough and the After were painted by artist wanna-bes and tourists and lost so much in the process. That and there was barely a square foot to draw anything on in the After scenario. A good start, though.

first come into my mind was confrontation between US army M-48 and soviet T-55 in 61'.

As 18 Bravo says above, definitely not the right wall type for the '61 Berlin Crisis.
