It would be a nice kit although I think I won't buy now

I'm still quite puzzled about marketing policies....

I know that the tractor was very diffused , but It seems to me that sometime we have the strangest subjects and we don't have the basic ones...

Well, just my silly opinions anyway

Who knows, maybe they just want to avoid licence issues...even with a 80+ year old tractor (which is a copy of the Caterpillar Sixty, BTW ). You can't be too careful

I sure hope they make this with an engine.. it would be great to be able to build it with the side panels open.

Can you imagine a kit like this WITHOUT an engine? UGHHH!!!

...well...at least it MUST be so...most of the time tractor was used without side panels. Anyway I'm almost sure that some company is producing yet a resin motor for it

That's the same thing which I suspected....but I don't think the name "STALINIST" is a trademark

Copyright. With that backward letter they don't have to worry about copyright at all.

There seems to be a bit of confusion creeping in here. Hisham is referring to the ChTZ S-65 Tractor from Trumpeter.

Trumpeter have announced the KOMINTERN not the STALINETZ:

On the tractor side, is this a copy of the Caterpillar used by the U.S. or was it modified to Russian standards. And would it be possible to put a blade on it?

Complete copy and built under licence although there may have been local modifications. I'll have to check about the blade , but I think it would be possible.

Komintern


S-65

Indeed, I think the original confusion was caused by someone showing
the product number 05538 next to the Komintern presented at some
show in Japan (Shizuoka??)
