IS-1 |
Early style IS hull,
and IS-2 turret with the 85mm gun. Superb detail, but the fit of the
hull and turret parts could be a little more smooth. Turret hatches
are very thick, and will need considerable work if posed open. |

as KV-1 series. Fender detail not quite as nice as in ESCI's KV kit,
but overall detail is very good. Includes both 85mm and 122mm guns. |

T-54 m.1949 |
Essentially it's the
old PST T-54 kit with a new resin turret (from Zebrano -ed.)
for the T-54-2 variant (NOT the earlier T-54-1 which is the m.1946 version).
None of the faults of PST T-54 kit are fixed. The turret looks OK but
a little basic. Probably a better option is to get the Modeltrans T-54-2
turret and fit that to a Trumpeter T-54 hull (note that it's not that
simple with the T-54-1 turret that Modeltrans sell, as the T-54-1 hull
had various differences, including machine-gun pods on the fenders,
so you'd need a new hull top as well as a turret, but that's another
issue altogether.) - Jolyon Ralph |

ZSU-61K |
PST kit with additional Zebrano parts |
|
|
|
| 72071 |
T-44 |
This kit is an amalgam of the PST T-54 kit with some additional parts from Zebrano. Inspection of the parts shows:
- Fenders are for a T-44M/T-54, not a T-44 (ribbed strenghening at the front). They are also too high up.
- The turret won't turn because the fuel drums will get in the way. Been there, done that!
- Wrong hatch on the commander's cupola on turret - same problem in T-44M kit (kit no. 72067). It should be the single-hatch type.
- Horrible T-54 PST "thin rim" wheels. Better replaced with Revell T-34/85 wheels.
- Drive wheel has 6 lightening holes (T-34 style). The actual T-44 had a drive wheel with five lightening holes.
- Handles on fuel drums are at an odd angle. It looks like they've been taken from a T-34 kit without any correcting.
- Stowage box on front port side looks a bit too chunky.
