They have no three-dimensional molds but it is all laser cut styrene. Only some tilde are engraved in the otherwise plain white surfaces.
The marginal low quality print black & white instructions are not very helpful to get the trim strips right.

The US price is about $80 and the German retail price is close to 100€ about the same inclusive 19% VAT.
An interesting kit of a modern structure of a $25 value.....
An unpleasant surprise:
The milky main walls are not made from styrene. All my styrene glue does not work at all. It is like water on iron.
I found "Pattex Special" (made by Henkel) is a glue that works. It is mix of the usual styrene glue and CA glue.
