This is a review of the comprehensive series of sprocket sets produced by OKB-Grigorov. This will allow you to produce any T-34 accurately and can be used in conjunction with the idler, road wheel and track sets to produce correct running gear for any T-34.

There are nine sets in all and are coded S72078 through to S72086...

The individual sets are as follows...

 

S72078 - Sprocket wheel for T-34 mod.1940 type 1

The quality of moulding of these items is first rate as you expect from OKB Grigorov, unfortunately I don't have any models of the T-34 to compare the sprockets with, but I am sure those of you who are familiar with the type will be able to make constructive comments on the accuracy of the items. There is a small amount of very fine resin web on the castings, but this is easily removed with an old toothbrush. I will be reviewing the idlers next and, in due course, the road-wheels and tracks. This is a very comprehensive series of products and a labour of love by Georgi and his team, the dedication to producing all and every variant of running gear for the T-34 is clearly seen in the samples above. I hope you all find this review of some use.

I have no connection with OKB-Grigorov and have no financial interest with OKB-Grigorov.
