Heavy Hobby 1/35 WWII KV/JS Family Track Links — Light Type (PT-35093)
Bring superior realism to your 1:35-scale Soviet heavy tank build with Heavy Hobby’s “KV/JS Family Track Links — Light Type.” This aftermarket track-link set is designed to replicate the lighter-duty track configuration used on certain KV/JS-series tanks (such as early JS, JS-1/JS-2, SU/IS variants) and offers a high-fidelity alternative to basic kit-supplied tracks — ideal when you want authentic detail, proper track behavior, and display-quality realism.
Scale: 1:35 — matching standard KV/JS and related heavy-armor plastic kits.
Track Type: Link-by-link track links (not a rubber-band track or one-piece band) — each individual link is molded to represent the “light-type” track link used on some KV/JS configurations.
Material & Molding: High-quality plastic (or resin/plastic mix as appropriate) with carefully cast track links that preserve guide-horns, tread detail, and hinge geometry. This ensures accurate reproduction of the real tracks’ look, and gives robust detail once painted and weathered.
Condition: Brand-new, unassembled and unpainted — giving you full control over the build: fit, finish, paint, and weathering.
Authentic Soviet Track Look: The “light type” tracks are designed to reflect those used on certain KV/JS-family heavy tanks (and related SPGs) — giving a more historically plausible appearance for early-war or lighter-configuration builds.
Realistic Movement & Display Behavior: Because the tracks are assembled link-by-link, you can depict realistic track sag, proper ground contact, and natural suspension interaction — something that fixed or rubber tracks seldom replicate convincingly. This greatly enhances realism in photos or dioramas with terrain, mud, snow or battle-used effects.
Enhanced Detail & Finish: The individually molded links allow fine tread and guide-horn detail to carry through painting, weathering, and wear effects — producing a display-worthy result rather than a “toy-like” finish.
Flexibility for Modelling & Conversions: Good for scratch builds, conversions, or upgrading standard KV/JS kits. The track set allows customization — whether you aim for a clean factory-fresh look or a heavily worn, field-used Soviet heavy tank.
Better Diorama & Display Value: For modellers building historically inspired scenes — Eastern Front winters, muddy retreats, or frontline heavy-tank deployments — the realistic track articulation and ability to weather tracks convincingly adds dramatic authenticity.
This is a tracks-only set — it does not include a tank hull, turret, suspension components, or any other parts beyond the track links. A compatible 1:35 KV/JS (or related heavy-tank) chassis is required for a complete model.
Assembly requires care: link-by-link tracks take more time and attention compared to single-piece or rubber tracks. Accurate fitting, alignment, and possibly pinning/gluing are recommended for optimal realism.
For best results: clean and test-fit each link before assembly; after assembly, paint, weather, and apply dirt or wear effects to maximize realism — especially if you intend to depict battlefield conditions or heavy usage.
Modelers building or upgrading 1:35-scale Soviet KV/JS-family tanks or self-propelled guns seeking historically accurate, detailed tracks.
Diorama builders and display-modelers depicting wartime scenes where track articulation, terrain interaction, and realistic weathering matter.
Hobbyists who value detail and realism over ease-of-build, and are willing to spend extra time for a higher-fidelity end result.
Collectors or modellers who want display-quality heavy-armor builds, with accurate tracks, weathering, and historical authenticity.
