I wonder how much interest there is for 1 piece replacement tracks for the 1/72 IBG universal carrier kits.
Here's the current state of the masters which are still works in progress:

Hi Sonny
Your tracks look really cool.
I am not a fan of allied armor and cannot answer to your question though.
If the price is nice like your other stuff why not?

@orange_3D – Sonny,
I had a feeling you were up to no good!!! Those cast resin tracks look super.
You’ve also have a number of excellent photo-etched sets too! Good for you! I’m sure I’m going to try one of your PE sets on one of my upcoming builds. Keep up the good work!
Happy Holidays Sonny,

How do you get the track around the wheels and sprocket? They can't stretch, do they? Or do you have to glue in the idler or sprocket after placing the track? Oh, I know. You glue the sprocket and/or idler into position on the track first, and then glue the entire unit to the vehicle.

Correct Biggles2. The material doesn't stretch, but it flexes a little bit.

Hello Jarek,
Nice to meet you. The IBG carriers has some really awesome detail, I really love those bren guns, boys and enfields! It's a bit of a challenge to build but very nice details!
Any follow ups in 1/72 scale?
cheers,
Sonny
