Has anyone tried those Kaizen workable tracks? I have heard nice things about them, but have had a hard time tracking them down...are they still in production?

I have tried a set of Sherman tracks from them I believe but you rarely see them anymore.

I've built Kaizen tracks for my Tamiya M40SPG; the build report can be seen at
http://www.panzer-modell.de/berichte/m40_tam/m40.php

In a nutshell: Very realistic, sturdy, but requiring lots of patience and time, especially the latter.

Happy modeling and nothing but the best for everybody in 2020!

They show up on the eBay, and can be found by doing a Google search. They are out there but not always easy to find.

I like them. I've used the Kaizen T-34 set and Panzer III/IV Ostketten set. The take a little time to assemble, but come out looking great.

Used the T-34 set on a Egyptian SU-100...giving those tracks a very handsome look with very fine detail.





Apologies that the detail does not show up too well in the photos. Take my word for it...the Kaizen T-34 is VERY GOOD...for plastic, they rival any other T-34 individual track link.
