1/35 chinese pla main battle tank ztz-99a110/27/2023 ![]() Modelcollect makes things si mple for the T-72/T-90 kits by provind all three sets of outer wheels in on e go - early eight-bolt T-72 wheels L-3), six bolt T-72 wheels (L-2), and s ix-bolt T-90 style wheels (L-1). Other than that it is a very nicely done kit. While it does give the model some badly needed "heft" it also ma kes construction and/or modification a lot more difficult. On sorting through the box my only real disappointment with this kit was t hat it reverted to the original DML 1/72 offerings with cast white metal lo wer hulls. I picked up this one to see how it compared with both DML 1/72 kits as well as modern 1/35 scale offerings. These models are produced in Guangzhou, China and the offering seem to cover every extant version of the Soviet and Russian T-72, T-80 and T-90 tank families. I saw the display by Free Time Models out of Georgia (US one!) at the 2016 AMPS Show and they had what appeared to the entire l ine of Modelcollect kits for sale. This has undergone a massive change in the last ten years, and now not onl y has it taken off but there appear to be as many companies making new kits as there are in 1/35. Generally referred to as "braille scale modeling" it sor t of sank into semi-obscurity. Recommendation: for all small scale Soviet/Russian armor fansįor many years those modelers who stuck with 1/72 armor (or worse, 1/76 ar mor) were not quite pariahs but to paraphrase Rodney Dangerfield "they don' t get no respect".
