Force of arm's does a T55. There not selling anything for a year so i'd see if the wargames command post has one. http://www.thewcp.co.uk/webpage.php?PageID=1

Do a quick search on ebay. There are some Chinese vendors who sell a remarkably detailed diecast T-55, I have three and they are a perfect match for 28mm, roughly 1/50 scale. You can usually pick one up for about $15 plus p&p.

Jungle Rot does a T55 in 1/50 also.  RLBPS (in the USA) used to sell them, not sure if they still do.  They cost about US$25.

Here you go.

$7.50 plus p&p and frankly better quality yet more robust than the comparable gaming items. The tracks even work and the vehicles take paint very well, no need to strip or prime, you can re-spray directly if you want another scheme.  Ignore the 1/43 bit. They aren't
