Drawings of this vehicle have been on their site for the longest time. Glad to finally see an actual built up model of it... proving it IS coming!

Very cool. Some of these vehicles are very interesting, but not a resin-conversion prices, LOL! Glad to see styrene staking out some of that turf.

Yep, I'm also glad to see it in the flesh; or at least, photos of it in the flesh. I've been eagerly awaiting this kit for the past couple years myself.

Yes as Hisham said it's been "announced" for some time, as far back as the 2008 Nuremburg Toy Fair I believe.

They featured it on their web site news again back in November last year
http://www.icm.com.ua/catalogue/technics/tscale135/ but this seems to be the first examples showing the kit actually in plastic.

I think they plan two versions, straight car and a radio car but that's going by memory.

So hopefully appearing in retail outlets soon along with what is shaping up to be a nice increase in soft skin subjects.
