1/72 T-72 smoke dischargers


Recommended Posts

I just wondered if anyone knew where I could find a set of the 12 smoke dischargers arranged each side of the turret on the T-72? I've got the old Matchbox (Revell?) 1/72 T-80 B kit which lacks them completely. I've searched for resin replacement sets but no-one seems to offer them.

Thanks,

Justin

Hi Justin

You're prolly better off scratchbuilding them. I built the same kit about ten years ago and i used sections of stretch sprue. If I were to do it again, I would use plastruct or similar plastic tubing/rod.

Will try to post some pics later...!

Either that you could scavenge them out of a spare Revell or ACE T-72 kit...!

Hi Justin

Here are some pics of my Matchbox T80... There were quite a lot to be scratchbuilt. I believe that Revell released the same kit but with ERA blocks and a lot of other details that were missing from the earlier release. Pardon the rough work this was done in the early 90s!
