sounds good thanks for posting

there are any pics of M-1200 fielded anywhere ?

sell the LRAS3 could be a good idea i thnk, for who want replace the trumpy one on the stryker RV, or make a Hummer with them (or just on tripod)

great news Joe, thanks for posting!

I'm very glad they decided to release this conversion set. Can't wait to get it.

OUTSTANDING......I HAVE TO GET IT....

I have the M1117 and figured it was going to be a while for this or I was going to have to scratch this.

NOW......life is good

Rounds Complete!!

Any ideas on price for this conversion?

Nice variant.. anyone have photos of it "in action" or a walkaround?

OOOOHHHHH me is drooling.

I'll see if I can get any more info Steve.

Joe

There is no "set price " on this conversion set yet. The models displayed in the pics are for a commisioned job to the company involved with this particular AFV.
In talks with NWM, it was found to be more feasible to release a conversion rather than the whole kit (which I hope will be released anyways) for the Trump kit. The possibility of releasing this set has been in talks for a few weeks, but the issue of price had never come up, or we were just too busy figuring on when/how to release this set.
Hopefully, Chris Mrosko, owner of NWM will chime in with an update.

I have no vested interest in the company, just a good friend to the owner.

Cap-Caveman calling :Mother: I'm in need of photos of the guardian in field of battle with in Afgan or Iraq, that are shown using this turret .

Pics of the "Knight" are hard to come by for some weird reason (or my search skills plainly suck). This variant is produced in extremely low numbers, nowhere near that of the M1117.

Cap-Caveman like Arnold said they are hard to come by, I did a google image search under the following...

M1200
M1200 armored knight vehicles
M1200 armored knight
M1200 Knight

Happy Modeling,

:Cap-Caveman: Calling :Mother: thanks for the photo links. Some of the photos are a bit small but these will do along with you scale over view photos. I'm going to sratch build one an then order up one more M1117 for it. "Thanks M8"
:Over:

AngryDog calling mother: Share the links please.......

He did. Click on the highlighted M1200 Armored Knight. Not many pics of use, but there are a few.

DOOOOOOOH! I missed it! THANKS!

saw a couple in FOB Warrior this past year and wondered What the heck! they were called

this is sweet Joe. I just got one of these for christmas and now I can get another for this conversion

Hey Cavey-wavy, if you're going to scratchbuild it, do it as an ACUTR Again build and get a campaign ribbon to boot! I'd love to see the build-up, as I'm sure the scratchers already involved in ACUTR would too! Cool!

In order to properly build an M1200, the turret set up is similar to what you may see on an M1131 Stryker (less the observation ports). Also, there are conduit lines on top the rear hull and mounting points that have to be added as they do not lie flat on the hull top. You will also have to remove anti skid on the top of the kit where the mounting points and antennas go. I will post pics here in the near future of the M1200 conversion and all its components as I've finally received my two sets. They need to be primed first as to make it easier to see in photographs.

If anyone needs images of the M-1200 drop me a line.

I saw on the AMPS site that NWM will have a table at the show. Will you be selling the M1200 at that time?

The M1200 will not be available at AMPS...

The M1200 will not be available at AMPS...? hopefully it will be, if not I will scrap the project.
