They could very well be working on those, too... I'm sure we'll be seeing many nice surprises in the months, and years to come. I just hope I live long enough to enjoy them

I for one can’t wait for BMP-1 to come out, just think of all the possibilities you could build with it. Hopefully the BMP-2 will be behind it soon.

IIRC about 3 years or so ago there was notice that Trumpeter was going to do the Type 86, the Chinese version of the BMP-1. I think that they just decided to go all out on the "BMP-1" version to maximize the molds and sales. Not a big surprise.

No word, or even hint, on the T-80 series though...

Jacques, does this mean that SP will have to redo his conversion kits for the older dragon BMP's or if he's planning to do this?

Once the Trumpeter kit hits, Sergej will look over the kit ans see what can be done. I garuntee there will be something from SP Designs for this kit.

I hope so, I love some of the stuff he puts out. Still yet to build the brem-4 kit I have and debating wether or to hold off to see if it would remotely fit the trumpy hull.
