Just asking.

The Tamiya kit is a T-55, and I could be wrong but I don't think Dragon made one. I think Takom makes one, maybe that's the one you're thinking of Jeff?

Hi;

FYI--The only kit Dragon made for the NVA was A Late T-34/85 ! The other AFVs were PT-76s & Type 85s !!

CHEERS; MIKE.

Knew that this was coming -it only made sense to offer one of their very nice kits sans interior. Personally I like interiors but hey that's not for everyone.

Just got it and it is a heavy kit. It looks incredible and was very well packed.

It has markings for the NVA and six others which are all soviet, but they do give you some finished options, the parade one looks funky.

The sprues look good through the plastic.

Clearly laid out instructions.
