Looks like they'd be quick to assemble, but at the same time, you have obvious connection points and white edges all over the place.

Wow amazing…I agree on connection points but maybe a sharpie colored marker would fix that issue right quick….if that was all I had to do to get a building done that great

@Twoball Cane
The issue with it is that a lot of the pieces aren't colors that most sharpies easily match. The bright white of the plastic is very hard to blend compared to other things.

The colored ones are probably also cheaper…

I have serious trouble with the roofs, to bend them is still a problem I have not solved. The bending is nigh impossible on the (not shown here) castle walls tiling. There must be an easy solution but I have no idea….

I've been using PlastiCraft terrain for several years now. Cheap and light and they look pretty good on the table (though not as good as resin).

If these are the same as their existing samurai range, then the black tiled roofs are just black dyed corrugated cardboard. You could roll it into a tube if you want to without any problems.

I see that the exposed edges are white, but I'd just paint them with cheap acrylic hobby paints to match. I've found that the colors of these kits are a bit too stark for wargaming and I've sprayed mine with flat clear, which would help if you need to paint and blend the exposed edges.

Overall, on the table, they look pretty good using the 3' rule.
