Does anybody know of a source for Academy Europe's set 35003 U.S. Medium Tank Flexible Vinyl Track Set? There is a review for them on PMMS but I've never been able to find one.

Thanks Ken. Hmmm 27 Euro, about $35 USD? They are pretty proud of those tracks, aren't they? I have to give this some thought. The main one I wanted was the 3 bar cleat type, but I suppose I'll put them all to good use.

Thanks again.

The Three Bar (T49) is some of the earlier M10 Kits so you may be better of picking up a second hand m10 for the track or getting Ex RHPS (now PANDA) tracks to replace them. PANDA still have the T49 listed. AFV club also released the T49 rubber bands seperately in 79 and 83 link sets.
Cheers

The nicest flexible plastic Sherman tracks are those from Dragon/Cyber Hobby, which are made in four part molds that can depict the incised pin detail on the end connectors, and does away with the nasty seam running the length of vinyl tracks made in two piece molds. They haven't offered the three bar track separately as yet, though. Still, they run around $7-$8 a pair, less if they're on sale.
