Ahem, an all-new M3 Lee/Grant, M3/M3A1 Stuart/Honey, and a new M8 HMC would be nice...

OK, shutting up, now...

BTW - The King Tigers from Takom are an exciting release. When was the last new King Tiger to hit the market? Especially with an interior?

While I do enjoy Trumpeter, the amount of T-70, 80, 90, etc is getting boring. There are plenty of WW2 and early Cold War subjects that deserve new tooling, many not in plastic.

How about a Centurion Mk.1, Churchill Mk.VII, Ram, Leopard 1(First Batch), etc?

Why is that disappointing??? The only Bulat on the market is from Skif.

Hi Everyone;

"O.K." So Why is it A Dissappointment ! Miniarm is the Most Accurate AM company that offers Conversions for various AFV's ! While granted, they tend to be Expensive and hard to find, they are IMHO Worth it. And I Have Not seen where this New kit is even the T-84 This Has nothing in Common with the Bulat which is A T-64; The T-84 is called Oplot, and has been noted there are Different Versions.

CHEERS; MIKE.

They posted this pic as another hint, but that's obviously the MTLB.. so, was the Oplot in the film "Behind Enemy Lines"?

There are several different T-84 versions; "OPLOT" is merely ONE of them...

Agree that MINIARM is one of the best A/M companies out there...

The movie (silly as it is) was shot in Slovakia so I kind of doubt it; IIRC it had T-72's? And I think they've already announced the SA-13 before, so I'm not really getting this hint.
