1:72 Scale Metal Die-Cast – T-34 Main Battle Tank - Length: 3.75" (from end of vehicle to tip of the main gun) Width:1.75”
This T-34 tank model's body is made of metal while the turret is made of plastic. The turret can rotate 360 degrees. The tracks are made of rubber and are fitted, however they do not move. The coloring and markings are accurate and realistic.
The maker of the model really did a good job with the model, the panel lines and details are very clear and crisp. These models have different details engraved such as doors, hatches, panels, lights, ports, antennas, machine guns, ropes, shovels, etc; all of these done with high accuracy and proportion. When they are painted in different color, say for example, shovels and ropes, they are indeed painted accurately.
These models come in a disposable package. The model itself is attached (via screws) to a plastic base which is made to look as rough terrain. The base measures about 5.5 inches by 2.5 inches and at one side of the base is some info about the model such as the type of tank and the time period it served. The T-34 was a Soviet medium tank which had a profound and lasting effect on the field of tank design. Although its armour and armament were surpassed later in the war, it has been often credited as the most effective, efficient, and influential tank design of World War II. |
