Wow, it's an expensive item, but Batterie Longues-sur-Mer was one of the highlights of the trip I took to Normandy with my son.

Is this really new or re-releases of old Custom Dioramics items (hence the CD... reference)?

It is a new release for Masterpiece Models, but you are correct, Masterpiece Models has acquired a good portion of the Custom Dioramics structures.

That looks impressive! I'm very pleased to see more Atlantic wall fortifications being sold, there really aren't many Normandy fortifications available that I can find.

Thanks for the interest guys!

C_JACQUEMONT,

Kevin is correct, this is a re release of the CD line. We have acquired a large collection of the old kits that are no longer available other than through us. One of the advantages of this is that we cast in resin and not the brittle plaster of the original kits.
Also for the buildings we have acquired from CD, we are working to add interior details as well to bring these great pieces to a modern age in casting and detail level.
