Hi Saul,
i havent seen them for sale seperately from a kit. I am in the same boat
however.
It seems toystar is making copies of Tamiya's 1/24th T34 and
Su-something-or-other.
The difference in material for the tracks in the toystar from the tamiya is
the
same as clay from wood. Toystar tracks are too soft for anything useful in
an
R/C-able kit like the 1/24th russian tanks. So i have two tanks and no
tracks.
the only solution thus far is to find old tamiya kits online, used and
cheap,
to buy for the tracks and then dispose of the remnants or make props out of
them.
Sorry i couldnt help you, but misery loves company.
