The twin-turreted T-26 was an early Soviet light tank from the early 1930s, based on the British Vickers 6-Ton design. It used two machine-gun turrets, which gave wide firing arcs but proved tactically inefficient and too lightly armed. With thin armor and modest mobility, it became outdated quickly and was soon replaced by single-turret T-26 models with proper cannons.

Dimenstions are accurate, details are good for a vehicle in this scale (15mm), but assembly is problematic due to the upper and lower hulls coming in three pieces. Not as easy to line up as he shows in the video. Extreme care must be taken to align all three pieces correctly to avoid one (or more) pieces sitting higher or lower than the others. Be careful what type of glue you are using as some 'super' glues will bond this material INSTANTLY with no time to adjust pieces into place. Both of my vehicles have gaps running along their upper hull fenders where the three pieces fit together. Not a huge deal for a gaming piece but a flaw none the less. Whatever material he uses for printing also tends to leave behind tiny, thin, strands that are difficult to remove entirely from all the small space between road wheels and tracks. But having said all that these kits are still a good value for the money and will look fine on a gaming table.
