T-26 mod. 1933 in 1/72 scale
Mouldings from dark green polystyrene are
lay-out into 3 frames. Model in compare for its
small proportions is made by almost surprising
quantity of parts. Most of them fall on
relatively complicated undercarriage. Parts are
molded slightly and in good quality, with
corresponding details. Component of model is
also relatively big plate of photo-etched parts
(mudguards, various covers, antenna for
commander's version etc.). Tracks are
unfortunately vinyl, but made already conensted,
so that is only need to thread them on finished
undercarriage. Another insufficiency of model is
fact, that covers on tower they are design in
one with tower. Driver's cover is contrariwise
moulded separately. Accuracy model is very good.
