Guys i got a question...
I bought the new trumpeter kit 00365 a few months ago.
On luckymodel.com I saw this set for just $26!
So i ordered it immediately. (they no longer have it)
but now I am wondering if anyone has any experience with this PE set in combination with the up armored BMP3 from trumpy.
the reason Im asking is cause the PE set says its is only for the old bmp3. but the site shows it is for the up armored one as well
what I am asking myself is, will i have a lot of spare PE left if I put this set on my kit? Cause I know a lot of it can be used.... but not all
what do you think?
I also got the option to buy the old BMP and use all the PE for sure..

Hi Boris,
haven't tried that PE but it should fit the new kit as AFAIK the old Trumpy kit is same base kit as the new one. The new one with ERA just has the extra ERA sprues + Trumpeters PE in it.
Yes, you will have lots of left-overs with the aftermarket set -- the mudguards & front trim-vane won't be needed with the ERA vehicle & Trumpeter provide the engine-screen in the ERA kit.
Check your references as there are many different sub-model of BMP-3 in use by several countries from Russia to Libya & the UAE.
