Now that the Nurnberg show is winding down and the BTR60 appears to be a no show , although at the Shikuza show it was featured along with the two Canadian wheeled apcs the Husky and Cougar. Does anyone have any information on when this cold war Soviet open top wheeled apc might be released?

Hmm, perhaps Gaoyue (iamsu7) will read this and can answer your question.
I also would be interested in some release-dates of different kits.

I would definitely be interested in a BTR 60 from Trumpeter. I'm hooked on Russian-Soviet vehicles.

Gayoue can we please get an answer infact any news on releasing other members of the BTR family?

YES Hobby Boss is releasing the BTR-60 family. NO there is no release date as of yet. The test shots were posted on IPMS Philippines months ago, but that means nothing. The pictures can not be accessed at this time due to them building a new site. Here is a thread about it on their forms.

It will be released when it is released. Someone going to die if you do not get one in the next month?

I'll probably wait till it is released to have a heart attack; but it is an acceptable risk for something this cool.

I was replying to Doug's post.

thanks for that link Tony but unfortunately i was unable to access the archive to see what those impressive sprues looked like ...good to know the kits development is that far along...thanks again

I pointed that out in my original post.
