Howdy all,
I was over at panzer35.ru and saw the master of the new Miniarm's BMP-2. I also saw a build for the Miniarms Tiger (Russian humvee) too. Ryan

Urrgh as pleased as I am, why did I go and buy all these AM stuff to try and make a decent job of making my own BMP-2, oh well thank god I didnt start building it I guess. This does look very good though.

Rob I could say the same but dont forget this is only a master, could be a long time till actual release.

Yes I agree, this kit has been listed in the pipeline for ages. Im sure it will be rather pricey as well when it does comes.

Right now the commentary is that it will be in the 4,000 to 5,000 ruble range...roughly $140-$180. Not sure if that is in country or export price.
The master looks good and the inclusion of a interior will be appreciated.
Glad to see that Miniarm is working on this again.

Thanks for the "in-progress" shots!
This looks very interesting, with metal parts and interior!
greetings...

Does anyone know where the line drawings in the thread come from?
I have the Wydawnictwo Militaria BMP-2 book, but as those drawings have the upper rear hull hatches not parrallel (like in the Dragon kit), I'm not too keen on them.
Thanks in advance.
