I have just bought the Trumpeter BTR-70, not started yet but it does have full interior minus engines, looks to be a pretty good model. I guess this one will have an interior also.

now, where is that "Shut up and take my money" gif from Futurama...
Trumpeter sthaapppp.... my poor aching wallet and miserable build completion rate CANNOT keep up with your release schedule. I'm still trying to finish DML kits from the 90's...
We live in good times and these are first-world problems to have I realize.
I'm in for at least one of each version.

Mike, I am with you. I cannot believe how much good stuff is coming out, and how much poorer I am in money even though I am rich in "Red" plastic. And the BTR-80 does come with a interior...how sweet it all is.
