Legend Productions has announced their latest offerings coming to market. Two of these items give the Tamiya T-55 a whole new look.
Legend Productions does not keep us waiting long as only a short while ago I was saying that the HobbyBoss IDF Puma could do with some further dressing up and sure enough one of the new sets tackles that head on. A generic M113 set is also on offer for dressing up the old battle taxi. Lastly there are 2 conversion set offerings for turning the Tamiya T-55 into a Civilian ZS-55AM. If I understand the difference in the two sets it really depends if you want the MODELKASTEN’s T72 Track(SK-11) set in the package.

LF1327SP or LF1327 Civilian ZS-55AM Conversion set

Both offerings of the civilian ZS-55AM are the same as regards the Legend Production parts, but one offers the tracks as as added extra. Or am I missing something?

Does th ZS-55 include decals as that would be the hard part for me.

In the news it does say decals included.

Sorry Darren, thought one offering was the military one, and the other the civilian one. My bad.

Hobbyeasy has the ZS-55 for $80.. and the one with the tracks is for $92.. not a bad price, I think. Hisham

I was tinkering with building this very yellow czeck T55 and took a deep breath already to dig into all those different T55 recovery versions and which one this actually is - and now everything comes in a neat cardboard box - ready for me to enjoy. And even with decals!! No need to figure out font and size and colour. This definitley made my day! Darren - and Legend, that is - you made a man very happy!

How is the coverage of the civilian ZS-55AM used by the Czech Road Assistance & Tow Away Service in the Wings & Wheels "T-55 in Detail, Special and Recovery Vehicles"? Are there sufficient images of the real vehicle in the book to benefit the Legend Productions conversion? Is there any other source for images of this big yellow AFV?
