is there such a creature that will pass for an early T72? miniarm's ural turret seems ti fit meng and trump's B variants, seeing as they don't have the added upper glacis armor. I like to use the meng, really decent kits, but it has the 6 and not 8 spoke roadwheels, so they'll need replacing. maybe this'll get me outta the land of confusion. this is worse that Brit Centurion/Chieftain variants

Hi;

FYI; There are AM sets available for 8-spoke wheel's !
Or just pick up one of Trumpeter's Copy of the Tamiya T-72, Now you could try and source Miniarm's set, but you can buy two of the trumpy copy's for the cost of Miniarm's !! And Rite Now there are A Ton of the Tamiya's Clone's for sale on ebay !

CHEERS; MIKE.

wouldn't know what to even DO with the rest of 2 trump 72s lol. and I am kinda leaning toward mengs T72B for the lower hull, AND trax. figured there's be set out there. if not miniarm, maybe accurate armor has them
