WWII Soviet Tanks

Most of my collection is stored in underbed plastic storage boxes and is labeled with the contents.


These are Mir HO scale tanks, WWII Soviet Union.

T-34/76 and T-34/85 mostly.

Most are painted Rust-Oleum Army Green, but some are painted in a darker green.

I tend to paint them by companies and store them by battalions.
The boxes on the left of the photo are pontoons for a pontoon bridge that I converted from Imex Conestoga Wagons and sheet plastic.

Mir tanks were made in the Soviet Union during the Cold War.  I got them from people in Czechoslovakia who traded plastic model kits from Japan for them.

Simple durable models the company folded when the Soviet Union fell apart.


This is another box with JS-II heavy tanks, also in HO scale.
