After a good amount of hard work, we are immensely happy to acknowledge you that Minairons' 1:72nd scale T-26 tank mod. A & B is already coming out from factory!!

Our fast build T-26 tanks come in a hard plastic sprue consisting of only 10 parts, 3 of which are intended for an alternative version --so that you actually need just 6-7 parts for assembling either a single-turreted model "B", or a twin-turreted model "A" tank.

Following recommendations issued by several sources including those from a well-known UK magazine significant contributor, this time the main gun turret includes a separate hatchet, as well as an optional tank commander torso.

These new tanks are available in a 2-sprues box, also including a decals sheet with national markings for a good number of Soviet, Finnish, Turkish and SCW Spanish (both Republican and Nationalist) tanks. The whole set retails on our webshop at EUR 13.95 (http://www.minairons.eu/en/88-t-26-a-b-light-tank-1-72-scale-8436545320082.html).

However, a first batch of our newly born T-26 tanks is already flying toward Caliver Books HQ (http://www.caliverbooks.com) in England, so that they'll be hopefully awaiting YOU at Salute 2013 (http://www.salute.co.uk/salute/salute-2013) --in their own stand.
