This photo was shown a few years ago on this very site by a member who used to claim to work for HB and Trumpeters R&D division, so nothing specifically new in that sense. Although if they are now previewig it on their FB page perhaps its getting closer...?

It looks like the turret has been modified but if you look at some details (troop vision blocks, front headlights ...) they are the same as in the first picture.
I'm not concecrned about the missing turret bustle armor, this just is a master in progress. The final one shoud be complete.
But it is hard to tell if the extra armor welded on the top of the hull just left of the driver and commander stations is present.
It also looks like Trumpeter have planned to release the new type of sprocket. It would be very useful for BMPs in recent use.

Burger-model. BMP-2 turret on BMP-2D hull. With wrong commander's hatch(with anti radiation cover). Previous master was better. I really hope it not will be in stock box.
