This is part three in my series of reviews on Battlefront's new modern building line for use with Team Yankee.
Battlefield In A Box has been a very good line of accessories for Battlefront's game systems. They do not have to be used exclusively for Flames of War or Team Yankee, however, and may be used with any 15mm system.
Today we will be taking a look at the Factory Building, product code BB 192 and retails for $50.00 USD.
The reviews will all be relatively brief since there is no painting or real assembly required. That in itself is my favorite aspect of the Battlefield in a Box series; open the box and you have an automatic piece of terrain without the hassles of gluing things together and painting all for an affordable price.
The model comes in three pieces, all cast resin and fully painted. The model, when assembled, is 3" tall and 6.5" long.

I really like this model. The color is great and fits the theme perfectly. It is a bit bigger than the standard house that we have all seen from the Battlefield in a Box line. It makes for a great terrain on the game table, especially when combined with other pieces of the new modern line. There is a limited amount of shading and highlights. The only detractor may be the price. $50.00 for a building is a lot of money for a single piece of terrain, however the quality is there and it is a lot of resin going into this building. I plan on purchasing more of these buildings to add to my collection, which is the best recommendation I can give. If I could change anything, I do wish they would come out with all Battlefront buildings in slightly different colors to give some diversity to the game table.
4.5 out of 5 stars.
