Hello Gentlemen-

I got my T-55 today, and was impressed until I found the tracks. Other than the guide horns, there is no detail on the interior of the tracks! I thought that this was going to be improved in future T-55 releases. I noticed that the wheels are much nicer, but the tracks leave a lot to be desired.

Thanks,
Matt.

If You have first T-55 You can check tracks there....
I did concentrated on a front surface = full track tread there. From the inner side I've slightly changed teeth.... Will remember Your recomendations for a next designs.

Hello Alexey-

Would it be possible to offer tracks in an update set that compare to your MT-LB and 2S1? The T-55 tracks are seriously lacking in interior detail, and they are not even hollow. I speak as a modeler who is building this kit and has it on the workbench as I type this, and my opinion is that the tracks seriously detract from an otherwise enjoyable build and a good model.

By the way, have you considered producing a K-63 (Type WZ-531, IIRC)?

Thanks,
Matt.

I meant comparing in quality when I mentioned the MT-LB and 2S1 tracks. Sorry about that.

Will try to create etched ones as optional....
Think some other manufacturers can do the same (as for me I like Part tracks).
Sorry, no exact date for such a set can be given now.

Sincerely, Alexey.
