I hope it is true too. Weird that the internet hasn't picked up on this until now, though

Rarely, if ever, (nowadays) do the distributors have the inside info. on on new releases. this is simple, as there is White-hot competition between the manufacturers, they DON'T announce until they have the box-art/cad images.

I dealt with Bronco for years and they take their security VERY seriously indeed...

One thing I would say, that following some of Bronco's recent releases, it wouldn't be that weird a reléase and would fit into their reléase program...

If this means that that the armor is plastic, and not a PE set included with the kit, then that would be really great.

agreed...I can't imagine how fragile the Bronco kit would be with PE slat on top of it. I am scared to handle the first version!

If the new is real, as the Buffalo L rod set armour is made with square bars so PE is not suitable & totally incorrect.

Speaking about this annouce, first this is a Buffalo, not Buffallo. Buffalo is named MP/CV not MRAP and the armor set is a L-rod set armor not grille armour.
