1/144 H667 "Bauform" Bunker - from CGD






This bunker from CGD is based upon the German Type H667 "Bauform" casemate.

The bunker is situated at the mouth of Exit E-1, on Omaha Beach (D-Day).

The location is actually the valley of a small river, the Ruquet,which flows from the villages of Colleville-sur-Mer and St. Laurent-sur-Mer above down to the sea.

CGD has produced a very nice bunker based upon a historic German design, but in modular form to allow for maximum flexibility. It will work with WTM PAK40 guns and has a 'widget' stand to allow for the WTM 88 (minus shield and cruciform mounts) to be used. The main bunker section can be 'flipped'. As seen in the photos the defence arm and rear entrances can be swapped or removed as required depending on your needs.
