Just wondering if any one has heard of any plans to do a 1.35 scale dutch or Aussie bushmaster Im sure it would make for an interesting build especially since they have been used operationally since early 2000.

I've heard a rumor someone is working on a resin version. but thats all i know.
Maybe now Hobby Boss is doing a Landrover is plastic, someone would do a Bushmater in plastic as well!

The problem with anyone that lives any distance from a real live Bushmaster is that they will be guessing at this angle and that distance between parts and will inevitably get something wrong. The best place for a Bushmaster model to evolve from is either Australia or Holland where proper measurements can be taken.
I could see a limited run resin one having some interest but as soon as Mouse House and ACM do the R&D that's when you'll see Trumpeter come out with one in plastic.
I have every intention to make a new revised Bushmaster but it is going to have to wait until the fall.
