Russian T34/85 Med Tank

Another kit that has been around for a while, but it still makes a good example of the T-34/85 M1944 Late Production tank. The tread system is of the long rubber strip type, with no option for either molded sectional or individual link varieties. It is reasonably detailed with hull accessories/stowage items, including the hull rear side drum-style external fuel tanks, and the hull rear smoke-discharge canisters. Although the M1945 units were equipped with a slightly larger-diameter commander's copula, at 1/35 scale such difference would be hard to discern, without close inspection. If the kit were to receive a future update, it would be nice to see optional track design attention, and perhaps 1-2 crewmen figures. Overall, the kit is of good quality and nicely detailed and priced, and I would recommend it to others.
