One of the latest in WWII Productions' excellent sets of resin tracks is for the new Tasca/Bego Pz. IIL Luchs kit.  These individual links address one of the few shortcomings of this state of the art kit, the one-piece vinyl tracks.  Although well-detailed, the single-piece tracks simply cannot reproduce the characteristic sag that the Luchs has. 

Once again cast in a neutral gray resin, the package contains 210 links and a page of simple assembly instructions.  The instructions suggest 94 links for the port side of the vehicle and 93 for the starboard; if the idler arms are left unglued, then the instructions suggest that the entire run of tracks can be built and slipped over the idler.  There are plenty of extra links for vehicle stowage.

Much of what I said in my previous review of WWII Productions' T81 Pershing links and T-54/T-55 tracks still stands, especially regarding ease of assembly and quality of detail (the links compare very well to photos in Panzers in Saumur #1).  The links come just about ready to install, with only minimal cleanup required (removal of the flash shown in the photo above).  No pinholes are anywhere in sight on these links.  Unlike plastic workable links, these comprise only one piece per link, with assembly accomplished simply by snapping the links together.  There is also no removing from sprues and none of the tedious clean-up associated with injection-moulded links.  This method of casting and assembly also allows WWII Productions to cast in very nice detail on the edges of the links and around the track pins, which is an issue with the Friulmodellisimo tracks that I have.  Assembly is simplicity itself, and two entire runs can be built up within perhaps an hour of opening the bag.  What more can you ask?  WWII Productions links would be an ideal place to start for somebody who has never used individual links before.

Both in terms of accuracy and quality, these links are superb.  If you are working on a Tasca/Bego Pz. IIL Luchs, indulge yourself and get a set of these tracks; you won't be disappointed, and you won't be in for much more work than if you used the kit's vinyl tracks.  I've said it before and I'll say it again: BUY THESE TRACKS.  Hopefully, that will encourage these fine folks to make lots more.

WWII Productions tracks are available in North America from Hannah's Hobbies and  M&Models or can be ordered direct from WWII Productions.
