As one of those famous T-72/T-90 Experts, Gur Khan Attack has just post his conclusion about Which T-90MS kit is the better choice now. Whole article was written in Russian but with Google translator we can generally understand what he said and the reason of his conclusion. If any friends here can understand Russian, can't be better to translate it to help ppl who still struggling to make a choice.

Here is the translation (poor):

"In connection with the release of the model T-90MS obr.2011goda just two manufacturers: Trempetera and Tiger model, many modelers have questions about its accuracy and copy number. To estimate can suggest a few renderings 3D-model, which I consider the most accurate in terms of geometry. Can be perverted, will drive them to the scale and imposing casting.
Sam know that this insanity, but I he did not spared - succumbed to the craze and put on view from the top of the casting tower Trump - differences there, but very small (compared only the general outline and dimensions). I must say, such a coincidence I was seriously surprised: "hell, but as Sir ?!" Now anyone can check and model of the Tigris. I it is not acquired. Additionally give a selection of photos in high the cut in order to see how the various attachment were performed on a real machine, wiring and other small things. In general I can say that Trump did also steers - for dorogyuschim Tiger chase is not worth ... Successful simulation!"

Whatever that means...I can't tell if he did a side by side comparison? It might be a better comparison to have a side x side x Diagram comparison.

The pictures attached the original article clear some of the fog around the translation. Trumpeter did a better job getting the angles on the turret and depicting how things are attached to it.

He expresses amazement that the other company missed such details when there are so many depictions. It's as if they didn't bother to look at the real thing from above.

I don't read Russian but I am very good at reading between the lines and discerning meaning from tortured grammar. This isn't as bad as some term papers I have seen from native English speakers.

Hello
Since Gur Khan is working with Meng on their modern Russian subject I'll wait a bit.

I heard that the owner of TM was a member of Meng R&D staff who leaved with most of documentations. I hopes Gur Khan is totally fair when judging TM kits since TM uses his references without his approval.

I likes all these new Russian vehicles!!!!

As it seem they did not like the Tiger's turret for some reason or another !

I'm sorry to disappoint you but it's far from what Gur Khan means. Let me translate it for you.
So, in 2 words: he roughly compared the render with Trump turret and he is amazed by the conformity. But he compared just overall sizes and contours, that's all. Considering the Tiger model: he didn't compare it as he hasn't bought it yet. But everyone is welcome to do it him/herself using the render and detail photos.
And he concludes that there is no need to persuade very expensive Tiger model having such accurate Trump model.

So once again - Gur Khan stated nothing about accuracy of Tiger model, just 2 cents about its price.
