This is a pleasant surprise. It is good for Trumpeter to finish off the Stryker series and move onto LAV III. Just wonder how much tooling from the Stryker kit would be used in this LAV III?

This is excellent news. Imagine a plastic LAV III and all variants.

Wow! Sign me up. I ran the field & firing tests for this vehicle when I was posted to the Land Forces Trials & Evaluations unit a few years back...I never would have expected to see a LAV-TUA in resin, nevermind styrene.

Great stuff!

Looks very like a Stryker, but with different "stuff" on top!

Will Trumpeter complete the Stryker range? Mortar, ambulance, engineer and NCB Recon?
