Description

Piece together your own T-72 with this 680-piece COBI building block set! Part of COBI’s Armed Forces Collection, this set contains all the blocks needed to build the famous Soviet tank with an East German style.

The T-72 is a Soviet-era tank that is currently used by many countries, including Russia, Poland, and Ukraine. It was also used by East Germany until the fall of the USSR in the 1990s. The T-72 first entered production in 1973 and has since become one of the most used and most recognizable tanks in the world. It has seen battle in the Iran-Iraq War, the Persian Gulf War, and many others. To this day, the T-72 is still being upgraded and modernized despite being first built over 50 years ago.

This 1:35 scale model features moving tracks, a rotating turret, and an adjustable cannon. It also comes with an East German style and insignia from the Cold War as well as a minifigure. Perfect for military and tank enthusiasts ages 8+, this COBI set brings the T-72 to life in incredible detail! Dimensions are 10.83” long, 4.13” wide, and 3.94” high. ~Alex

Publisher's Description of COBI T-72 Light Tank (East Germany/Soviet) - 680 pieces (Armed Forces)

Using COBI construction blocks you can build a main battle tank from the times of the Warsaw Pact, when Europe was divided by the Iron Curtain! The T-72 M1 tank set includes a double set of markings for East Germany and the USSR. East Germany purchased over 500 tanks of this type from the USSR, Poland and Czechoslovakia. After German reunification in the 1990s, the tanks were withdrawn from service. In the USSR, the tank entered service in 1971. Thanks to numerous modifications the tank is still in use in modern Russia.

The block model was reproduced on the fantastic scale of 1:35 using 680 elements. The size of the tank matches the rest of the land vehicles issued as part of the Armed Forces collection. Especially for this model we have developed a new block in the shape of the very characteristic road wheels of this tank. The model includes moving elements like wheels, tracks, a rotating turret and a movable cannon. The hatch in the turret opens for the included figure of a German tank driver, who has a printed uniform with characteristic camouflage pattern. The set also includes a plate with the model name printed on it.
