I've never done any modern builds before, and quite honestly don't know squat about them, but Sam...great googley moogley that thing is bad a$$ enough to make me wanna try!

Back to the original post I think it's great that all these brand new modern kits are coming out. Sooo many options for armor modelers these days.... It's truly fantastic!

Cook The Man Some Eggs!! Hahhaha! Sam, is that for real?

What were the other vehicles in the section named? Keep your mouth shut and your legs open; This is as cleaned up as I get you bastard; Too much weights - not enough speedwork;

Yes mate, quite legit!


I think the section commanders vehicle was "woman you look awful, go clean yourself up"

Been waiting a long time for this one. I'm glad it's finally on the release schedule.. I imagine it will hit the HK stores sometime next year.

At last the ASLAV is in the market in Japan! But with a first quick view in the instructions, i saw the first mistake at the painting instructions! Aussie's camo has three colors:tan, light green and black! Trumpeter's instructions mention two green colors (one dark green and one light green) and a tan color!

I expect to receive mine next week
I'm no expert about ASLAV's, but was waiting for this release for a long time!
I never -never- take kits' manufacturer's painting guides as a reference...

It seems Trumpeter are letting more and more mistakes in as they RUSH more kits out. Yes the new kits are nice but they are letting their quality slip. I for one would rather have a slower release of hits and higher quality thanks.

It might be true talking about LAV derivatives, since they did not seem to modifiy their initial "base" kit, and only add or change the parts required to build other versions.
But it comes an unaccurate statement if you start talking about their latest russian/former USSR stuff, which is improving reléase after reléase.
Just take a look to their T-72/90, BTR-60/70/80, t-64 and T-80 kits, just to name some.
They have faults, of course, but are all awsome kits! And you cannot say that they are not rushing them...
