Aw man. How am I supposed to find space for that? My Trumpeter stash is now as big as my stash for all other manufacturers combined...

Good news. But isn't it just a T-90 without Shtora and other stuff. I hope they release something like this in the future

Interesting. How common is it to have ERA-1 blocks above the mantlet in this model? I can not seem to find any examples of this in my picture collection.

That's kinda rare IMO, but I do think you got an option not to install the K-1 on the mantlet as well as the shield for the commander
oh, god.....a T-72B with K5....... my dream has come true so much earlier than I'm expected!

So when did they start fitting the BM with T-90 style tracks(forgive me I don't know the designation for them)instead of RmSh?

That's rare, but you can definitely can find some pic about fitting the T-90 track
Try to search with " Т-72БА" then you'll find lots of pic about

Not the most common, but I got this:
This...
And this one, that seems the one of the box-art:

Interesting. I was hoping to do a BM out of the box for Chechnya but looks like that will take some mods, all the BM's I've seen in Chechnya had RMSh track. Any idea if the BM's that use T-90 tracks have the T-90 drive sprocket? I can't seem to find a good pic. It could be as easy as replacing the track with the Trump RMSh tracks.

Thanks for the pictures. I am amazed to see these odd configurations. One of them has only K1 ERA on the turret. Such a pity I cant see the track and front fender types.

I clearly see Kontakt 1 on the turret roof here -again, seems to be the same as Trumpeter's box-art- :
The fixing points are completely different to later Kontakt blocks
