Figures, I just got 4x Zvezda T-26 with aftermarket stuff in the past couple weeks to build an OT-26, AT-1, T-26 M1933 and 1939. I can live with the too narrow hull though...
I might get one as long as the price isn't stupid for a tiny kit, since I don't have this variant..

ABOUT TIME!
With this as a base kits, they could do well over 80 different variants of the Vickers E mk b/a/c, Polish 7tp, Polish Vickers, Chinese Vickers, Soviet ST-26 bridgelayers and mineclearers... The list goes on. Chances are they won't, but one can only hope.
Also, where did you get the stuff to build an AT-1? That is a very serious conversion. the width of the older kits is very annoying.

YES! HAPPY! HAPPY! HAPPY!
While I would have prefered that they started out with any one of the single gun turret variants, I will take any version of the most negleted (by major manufactures) but still the most numerous early war tank. Now I would like them to also produce kits of the model 1931 w/twin machingun turrets, 1933, 1936, 1938 and 1939. Please Hobbyboss don't mess this up.

I got it from a Russian company from soga-miniatures.com. There is a news accounement on Armorama about it..I didn't know about it till I saw a posting on here about World of Tanks a couple weeks ago. Its a very nice conversion for the Zvezda kit. I'd give it a 8 out 10.

Good to hear. I'd get one or a few. Need to finish up this Zvezda one first though.
