What basekit is best suited for their latest conversions? I'm assuming a Tamiya kit but I'm not too sure which one that may be.
Thanks

All of their conversions except the IDF Uparmored and IDF Ambulance are for the Tamiya 1025/1046. You can't go wrong with any of them really. If you are doing any one of the 3 new ones, then I recommend the IBIS Tek bumper and their new Rhino Device as well.....

I believe they recommend the Tamiya M1025 kit. I've got the M1151 conversion coming to me, haven't received it as of yet. Looks pretty cool....

Either the M1025 or M1046 can be used. The base models are the same. The only difference is that the M1046 has a new front bumper and winch, armored doors, the TOW weapons mount and TOW, and different stowed gear to go with the TOW.

I was hoping it was the M1046. My brother sent me an M1046 and asked me to build any variant for him so I figured one of the Frags would be great.
Thanks everyone!
