I've been working an Abrams A1M1HA its an old Dragon (reboxed from Revell) and got round to the tracks which are "link and lenght". the rest of the kit is fine, not the best but a nice build which is all but done after 4 days work. The tracks are to be nice sh*t and this got me thinking which tracks I like best including aftermarket ones.
In order
6th Any link and lenght no matter what they never work for me, never glue right and always look rubbish
5th Hobby Boss after market tracks. Made from a very hard brittle plastic, never glue right, take ages to work with and if they didnt lok more realistic than L&L they would be last by as far as I could throw them.
4rd Rubber band, easy to work with, if you heat seal them they never break open but dont always look thet accurate
3rd Magic tracks. look great. will hold together most of the time
2nd Metal tracks whether they are Fuils or the new Spade Ace ones, look very good, give a good "weight" to the tracks but cost a lot I think
1st Bronco's aftermarket tracks. I know there are 3 pieces per track link but they work great, look great and cost a whole lot less than metal tracks.
I've attached a picture taken of the tracks I used for my Challanger 2 from Bronco to I hope prove my point on this. I've just baught two set to replace both L&L sets for the two Abrams I have

Just my thoughts and hope someone will save their sanity using this suggestion
