Hobby Boss 83851 - 1/35 Soviet T-28 Early Medium Tank Kit  [HB-83851]

Hobby Boss 83851 - 1/35 Soviet T-28 Medium Tank (Early)

The T-28 medium tank was a distinctive figure in prewar and early World War II clashes, and this Hobby Boss 83851 1/35 kit faithfully recreates that multi-turret layout. It is aimed at modellers who appreciate historic Soviet armour and period detail.

Operational Background and Accuracy

Developed as a breakthrough tank, the T-28 featured several turrets to engage multiple threats. This kit tries to reflect the vehicle's proportions and surface features, giving buildable accuracy for those seeking faithful representation.

Assembly Notes for Modellers

The kit offers crisp sprues and straightforward instructions, though the level of detail makes it more rewarding for builders who are comfortable with trimming and careful glue work. Fine details on the hull and turrets respond well to careful painting and weathering.

Presentation and Shelf Value

Finished models make a credible centrepiece for a collection or a diorama depicting early Eastern Front actions. The T-28's unusual silhouette helps it stand out among other period armoured vehicles.
