Good news. The M-84 turret has been casted, by far much better and more accurate than the chinese product available at :

First pictures of my (NK Patriota Models) M-84 resin turret conversion. The turret has been primed for presentation of details:

Hi Seth,

my M-84 turret is ready for sale. In the set you get:

- accurate M-84 turret,
- universal rotational basis,
- 4 ends for towing cables,
- antenna-base,
- hatch for left entry,
- 12 smoke dischargers,
- DNNS-2 range finder with extra cover,

For those guys who don´t wanna spent a lot of money buying front glacis for converting the Tamiya T-72M1 kit, I also offer T-72A tanks from Zvezda. The easiest, fastest and cheapest way to build up a T-72M or M-84 tank without 16mm front armor. The price is 14,- €. Please make your own configuration and let me know it.

Could you tell me the price of the G/M turret? It looks great. I especialy like that you added the bases for the smoke mortars.
Does it come as one piece?

Thanks in advance.

Hello Marc, thanks for your comment. I added the bases for the smoke mortars from the main kit, just to show how the turret has to look like. If I had not make this picture it may feel like a naked T-72 turret. I hope you understand the presentation. The second reason is, if someone wants to build a T-72 G from East Germany or a simple naked basic T-72 G/M turret from Lybia, Syria or similar, he has to cut off and sand the attachment points, which means a lot of work and patience.

Believe me, there is no problem with positioning the bases. I have explained it in the assembly guide with two detailed pictures.

Here´s a web-link for my custom built T-72M tank of the former East German Army "NVA", built from the Dragon/Zvezda kit, with a reshaped front turret geometry. As you can see I attached the bases correctly by eye.
