Interesting. They chose (correct me if I'm wrong) the T-35/76 type. How does the quality compare with the FOV T-34, which is an awesome reditioning of that famous tank?

It is a T-34/76. I do not know how it compares with the FOV. Someone who has both might give us some insight. I have 2 FOV tanks -- T-72 and a King Tiger, and they are both very nice. Like I have stated before, I stay mostly with
1/72 because I can still get great quality at a reasonable price.

I believe that these are actually not new despite the advertisment saying that they are new. These have been out for a while, but the price has dropped on them for some reason. There are 4 versions of this t34 available from britains, one in a 3 tone camo and another in a winter camo along with the two listed. They arent bad, but yes the gear looks odd. The other two are still at the normal price which i believe is 40-50 dollars depending on where you look. I think that these are being liquidated, hence the price cut.

Michigan toy soldier company www.michtoy.com along with other dealers have pictures of all 4 versions along with some other tanks from britains. In my opinion, using the FOV's is better for 1/32 as the detailing is much better.
