I'm hoping its a T-80 since I'm in the process of collecting parts to make a correct M1 and Ural T-72. It would be just me luck if they announce a T-72 though.

TOS-1A?? I guess they it would make sense for them to tool the T-72 first...fingers crossed for that or the T-80. Might even be a T-90...there's so much to speculate on

I hope the CAD screenie was taken with perspective set to Dimetric option. Excited to see a new tool none the less.

Hah! Im in nearly the exact same situation as you!

Still, happy to see the t-80. Trumpeter is slowly overtaking Dragon as my favorite model manufacturer.

Man I am well pleased to see that T-80BV, such a good release. I just wonder if they plan to do other versions like with the T-64? In any case I would say people waiting on the T-72 probably won't have too long to wait, in my opinion they are bound to tool it at some point.

Considering that Xact Scale Models will be releasing a T-80U in a couple of months.. and as nice as this looks.. I would have preferred to see a T-72.

T-80BV is a GREAT addition. You cannot build a accurate T-80B or -BV right now without a LOT of work. All other T-series are well represented. It was the last of the missing links. After this, it is refining good models to better models (T-72, T-55 etc...)
Applaud that the T-80 series is finally getting its day in plastic PROPERLY.
And it will have indy track links with end connectors for CORRECT track articulation. More work but WOW. Nice. I just hope they get the turret shape correct...
