Is this kit worth a flip? What are the kit's origins?

It is the second worst T-80 kit out there (the Fire Fox kit is the worst).
Not worth anything...really.

Hi guys, is this a ww2 T80 kit? If so is it better than the resin and white metal kits offfered by tankmaster? Cheers Kevin

No, this was Lindberg's last ditch chance at the armor model world with a modern Soviet T-80 based off of fuzzy photos. It looks like a Soviet tank when completed, but it is not an accurate T-80 by any means.

Thanks, I'll certainly avoid it then!
