The Xuan Hua T-34/76 is Exquisite! (1 Viewer)

[tmanthegreat]

I recently purchased the new Xuan Hua T-34/76 model and it is exquisite! The version I have does not include the full interior, but has working hatches, movable guns, and rotating turret. The paint and weathering are excellent and very similar to First Legion’s latest offerings. It compares well with the new FL T-34/85, but is a huge advancement over the older FL T-34/76. However, it is neat as one can now show the evolution of the T-34 tank design with all three models.

This is my first armored vehicle model from Xuan Hua and I am very much impressed with the quality. I purchased the tank from Toy Soldiers Galleria in Singapore as the model is not available in the USA. I’ve just inserted it into an existing display I had with some War Park Soviet figures and a FL tank commander. I’m already working out a different display to showcase the tank in action.

Enjoy

Thank you for posting. This is a great addition to your photographic blog. The set up is very good.

Nice collection of t-34s.

I have a Xuan Hua figure and it’s quite nice. I purchased it from Minuteman Toy Soldiers, the sole authorized dealer in the US.

Now with a 10% tariff

It’s unavoidable. Even if I purchased something from Toy Soldier Galleria, I’m going to have to pay a tariff.

Not anymore; I dropped the line.

I was never notified the T34's were available and by the time I found out they were available, they were sold out, so I got none.

When you treat dealers who supported you from day one like mushrooms, they will move on.

Also, with the 54% tariff on Chinese goods now in place, it would have wiped out my entire profit, so I would have dropped the line regardless.

Thanks for pointing that out Captain Obvious.

And the goods are made in China, shipped from China, so it's 54%.

Actually, I didn’t have to pay any tariffs on this purchase. Item cost was $399.99 with free shipping and that’s what I paid… Granted I had placed my order the day before the big announcement came on Wednesday - or maybe tariffs don’t apply on individual purchases? I’d have totally bought from the U.S. dealer as well, but for the reasons mentioned above, that fell through so I went abroad…

Glad I got the model though!

Perhaps you got your order just in time or perhaps our government doesn’t have systems in place yet.

Great looking model though.

The tariffs in place are on importers bringing the goods in for resale as well as individuals buying for person use, all purchases are now subject to tariffs.

Another stunning diorama Tristan. Great review and comparison pictures too
