8 year old boy loved it, he has hundreds of little soldiers and still gets lost in his imagination every time he plays with them.

Santa picked this up for my 6 year old but he hasn't seen it yet. Fortunately for me he brought it by so I could check it out. It's expensive for what it is but Santa's generosity knows no bounds when it comes to the joy of a child. The box it comes in looks similiar to the Utah Beach set by the same maker. The box art is neat and reminded me of what impact art work and packaging have on a child and how they relate that to the imagination part of playing with the toys. On the back of the box it shows a sample set up of the playset which I think helps a young child understand more about what the toy represents. But all that aside the pieces were durable and made out of quality plastic that isn't brittle. The soldiers come in poses that make sense. The right mix of beach obstacles and gun emplacements make it realistic. The damaged french farmhouse is a nice touch as the soldiers can be placed in position at the windows. The Higgins boats are close to scale. Both American and British landing forces are represented adding to the historical factor. One thing I did not expect was that several real life people are represented within the axis and allied plastic figures. They even have Rommel himself represented in his regalia despite the fact he was eating birthday strussel with his family on D-Day. I give this product a high rating even though my kid hasn't seen it yet for this main reason: It looks and feels like a realistic and quality playset with educational value that will allow me to teach him about an important part of our history. The creators did a good job with this toy and you just don't see many toys like this any longer.

I was BLOWN away by this product! I expected the packaging to be a clear plastic bag with jumbled pieces. The box is SO detailed and informative! I loved the included historical facts that honored the soldiers who fought in the Invasion. I ordered these for my son’s 7th birthday. The packaging made this such a fun present to open. Well worth the money if you have or are an avid war history enthusiast like mine.
