[Review] Modelcollect´s T-80UM1 "Bars" - Russia´s Snow Leopard in Braille Scale

You want something modern, that is badass but not an Abrams or a T-90? Export customers have been offered with an alternative for both in the early 2000s in form of the T-80UM1. This isn´t a really popular vehicle, so I was really pleased that we´re now able to build it in 1/72 scale from the kit I´ll review today. Let´s get started! The vehicle: While the T-72 series of tanks were (and still are) a huge sucess on the export-market, the most advanched tank the USSR fielded in larger numbers - the turbine-powered T-80 - wasn´t really used outside Russia. Engineers wanted to chage that in the 90s following the collapse of the Soviet Union. Now they wanted to export their high-tech vehicle and maybe even secure contracts for modernisazions of Russia´s remaining vehicles. Their product - called the T-80UM1 - was based on the then most advanched T-80 models in use, namely the T-80U and T-80UK. Having taken a look at recent conflicts around the world, they added advanched features to make...

[Review] Revell T-90A "Vladimir" - Russias Main Battle Tank in 1/72

Oh god... was lazy for two months... 😞... but I managed to get some stuff and footage to show here. So get ready for some Christmas holidays ful of modelling. So hi friends and fellow modellers! Today I want to showcase Revells 1/72 scale plastic-injection T-90A. I was thiking about trying the Zvezda or Modelcollect T-90A here, but as I ran over this little kit in a store for just 15€ I wasn´t able to widstand the temptation. The Vehicle: Developed from a modified T-72B, the T-90 was becoming Russias standard MBT in the late 90s and early 2000s. Although this design wasn´t bad in many respects, the Uralvagonzavod desin bureau started producing a new variant in 2005. This vehicle had a distinct "new" cast turret derived from the first T-90 planning-phase in the eaarly 1990s were new turrets and even a new hull were considered to be used in the future replacement for th T-72B. The Object 188 incorparated many improvements at that time, but the simpler Object 187 (bas...

[Review] Italeri Autoblinda AB 41

Got some new Itaeri stuff in a lokal hobby store a while ago... let´s take a look at one of the kits - the Autoblinda AB41. I got it for about 15€ as 1/72 scale luckily isn´t the most expensive ever scale to build in. The vehicle: So, what is an Autoblinda AB41? Wile Italy wasn´t the the most prominent tank building nation in WW2, it had sucess in the early North African campaigns . There they used indigenous armored vehicles like the newly built Autoblinda AB41 mainly for patrol duties. Although the particular vehicle was really complicated and even needed a rear-driver, it proved quite useful in the desert enviroment and later in the Balkans and on the Eastern Front. It had up to 17mm of armor and mounted the turret of the L6/40 light tank with the same Breda 20mm Autocannon. Its 120HP engine propelled the 7.5ton vehicle up to about 70kph. The kit: As Italeri is an Italian company, they released a bunch of interesting Italian vehicles in 1/72. The particular kit was first relea...
