Hi Everybody;
Man this is going too put a Big Dent in Miniarms Armor.
Well How many T-72s do you think that they could do, now Im not counting the BMPT or the Tos-1 as they are really in a class of there own.
Someday id like too see the PT-91 and the Degman, and maybe the M2.
On a Sour note, well probably not see them until 2014
Man What A Year !!!! CHEERS; MIKE.

I would like to see an MTLB, as the Skif kits are quite soft on detail with a poor fit.

Hi Matt;

Let's stick to the model in question. There are several T90 threads your discussion should be posted to.

Well seeing as the T-90 turret Igor is referring to is the 'cast' example, the same turret present on this model, i'd say Igor's input is entirely relevant.
Igor- please can you share your thoughts?

It should have seen combat in Chechnya. I recall seeing a fantastic build log of one with slat armour that saw combat in Chechnya. I may have also seen photos of the T-72B with K-5 in Georgia, so it may have been there as well.

Hi Everybody;
From the pictures that Matt posted, this kit looks Fantastic. Id like too see more pics, of the rest of the kit. This is going too be a Great Addition too my collection. I can see myself purchasing more than,lets see eight or ten.
From looking at the picture and the Level of details, I don't think there is a need for a lot of PE,
other than maybe the Engine Deck Screens.

the only problems I had with the T-64 were the P.E. imo too much of it in that kit

Received mine today.
Very alike their T-90 cast turret
The real nightmare will be -as was with the T-90- the 120+ PE thingies to repplicate the detail of the anti radiation lining...
Anyway, I love these kits.
I hope to start some kind of build log soon.

Hi Everyone;
Even with my Lousy Eye Site this looks like one very fine model, and at fifty dollars a fair price with the amount of sprues that are included.
2013 was IMHO One Hell Of A Year for us Tread Heads, cant wait too see what 2014 brings us.

Did it come with the correct T-72 (not T-90) tracks?

Comes with the T-90 style tracks, which by the way are "correct" for the vehicle shown in the box art

Hi;
There are No Correct tracks for either vehicle, they Both can be seen with each track, I have seen T-72s with RMSH and the so called T-90 tracks. And the T-80 can also be found with either set. The others also can be found with either track, Terminator, Tos-1, BMOT. The Only Issue is Which Drive Sprocket is in use with said vehicle. As the tracks are different, is the Drive Sprocket Different.
I have yet Heard said that the D.S. were different, such as the T-64s is markedly different. Even the T-55 can be found with the RMSH tracks.

Do you mean to say you've seen T-80 sporting single pin RMSh tracks ? I've read that the Russians are calling the "T-90" track universal but I don't know if that's what we're seeing on T-80s as well. Drive sprockets are definitly different as T-72 track is single pin and T-90 universal track is double pin with an oval shaped end connector like the M1 Abrams.
