Greetings all, just thought I would share my general review and an example structure for the gothic building sets from Pegasus Hobbies. On opening the box you will note that the plastic is quite stout, ideal for use and abuse on a gaming table even in a club setting. Something else that you may notice is that there is a heavy film of mold release from the production process. I find it best to just wash all the parts while still on the sprues. You will want a fairly good clipper as the mold ports into the parts are pretty thick and you will want a good heavy clipper to ensure you do not damage the parts and get a clean cut. Other than that there really is not much as far as mold lines go, so for the most part it is simply cut, sand the mold ports smooth, and paint. The buildings are made in such a way that they are modular if you want them to be and they hold together well even without glue. The below structure was made using one of each of the gothic buildings and ruins sets they have released thus far. My cat decided to help me in my testing... I think that the buildings are worth the listed price and are a breeze to work with. I would suggest them to anyone wanting to do an urban layout.

The APC is just a Chimera with plasticard on the sides instead of track units, 1/35 wheels from Trumpeter, and a Predator turret. It is my own design, I just think that the Predator turret looks really nice on the Chimera and I wanted a wheeled design to go with my urban guard force.
