Introduction

Plus Model out of the Czech Republic hits us with another set of cardboard boxes from WWII that can be added to many different dioramas or vehicles.

Contents

Much like their recent set that goes by the same name "U.S. Cardboard Boxes WWII," this release covers much the same ground, but with a different cast of characters. This set handles a GI's basic hygiene requirements. You get a total of 13 boxes with this sheet: 3 boxes, really cases, of Palmolive soap, 3 cases of Pebeco-brand toothpaste, 3 cases of Williams Glider shaving cream, and finally 4 cases of Scott toilet tissue (an ample supply in the field is always a good idea!).

the Review

The set seems like a pretty easy build: cut, fold, a dab of glue and away you go. It could certainly add a spot of color to an otherwise drab vehicle or vignette. The boxes are extremely well-printed with incredibly small detail, along with labeling that indicates that the products were intended for GI use.

Conclusion

This will certainly make some nice, quick additions to a model, but the subject matter seems a bit limiting. These boxes could certainly be added to a supply truck or jeep load as one possible use. One small issue is that Plus Model does not include any instructions or tips for usage, both of which would have been a welcome addition.
