hanb7323- have you built the AFV full interior T34/85 ? Its neat. I got it , not built yet. A Miniart one would be cool. Miniart plastic is so delicate though compared to AFV.

That's awesome news given how expensive the metal tracks are getting.

I Agree Bill-c, metals tracks are not cost effective.

If they're click together ones that'll be great but I hope Miniart's sorted out the brittle plastic issue.

I believe the brittle plastic was due to restricted supply when they were located in the Crimea and could only get plastic from Russia.
Since they have re located back into the Ukraine, they can get the "real plastic", but there will be a stock of older brittle plastic in stock with suppliers!

easyco69-I hope so. But I don't like full interror kit. In these days full exterior kits are fully making my head ache. Haha
