Just finishing their 4x4 version. Pretty much identical sprues (in the 4x4 version you get six suspension units and the etched set has six copies of a couple of the suspension parts). Obviously the hull will be different.
The 4x4 is a nice kit - this should be as well.

John

For those who want to build it in its UNIFIL colors, I made a walkaround of two Pumas in 2008 that could help. One is the exact vehicle depicted in Trumpeter's instructions.
