I just wondering whether there are any news on the release date of Trumpeter's BTR-60PB, because the first version is already out.
And what about the BTR-70, -80? Any bit of information would be great,
Regards,
Adam

Hello, the release of Trumpeterīs BTR-60PB should be in the next few months.
Using Trumpeterīs webpage... hmm, I can not open it.
But I was sure, it could be released in the time-frame from November until January.
About the others, I have no information so far.

Hi Soeren. As far as you know, T-64 will be out in the same period?

I have no information about the the release of the first T-64 kit, but only saw the BTR-60PB on the news-releases, which show news for the next 2 or more months.
But it could be possible.
Also I will make a new topic, which shows some images of them and more ... from Tokyo-Hobby-show.

Small update after a small research for the BTR-60PB:
another kit, the BTR-50PK, is already available in my country and shown on the webpage "1999.co.jp" as release-date in september.
That means for the BTR-60PB http://www.1999.co.jp/eng/10160623, that the shown release-date in november could be realistic.
Perhaps this helps so far.

BTR60PB is scheduled for a December release here in North America.
No word of either of the T-64s, and I have the release schedule up to and including February.

I agree with a december release... using cybermodeler as a reference.
But: better -later-, than -never-.

I could have sworn I've seen that Trumpeter BTR 60 at my local hobby shop.

The open top BTR-60 is available, but the closed top one isn't out in North America until December.

Closed top "traditional" 60PB is already on Ebay in Italy, the only one on Ebay. Even Chineese sellers don't have them yet.
Oh, how long I have been waiting for this model in 1/35!!!

Guys, has anyone managed to get Trumpy's new BTR-60PB?
It was on sale here in Hungary but it is already out of stock. I have seen images but I would like some first-hand accounts of it.
So anyone?
It is very interesting that I cannot find it on Hobbyeasy though...
Cheers,
Adam

I was in my local hobby store yesterday and the PB version is now in store, I was able to have a look inside the box and it looks very nice.

I saw an image of a Trumpeter BTR-60PU (command version) in a modelling magazine this summer.

I bought mine through Model Hobbies UK. The kit looks really nice- I was surprised to find an interior for it- I wasn't expecting that for some reason
