Hello
I just found info that BlackDog will release a Trophy system.
Can I mount it on Merkava IV LIC ?
Thank You for help

I don't know, but I think the model in the photo is the Hobby Boss kit and not the Academy one. The HB kit has a lot of problems, so I hope the Black Dog set can be made to fit Academy's model.

It should be mountable on the LIC, even though the one pictured is not LIC.

The Blackdog kit is not correct.
The rear basket is the standered type and not the one for the Trophy system. The side moduals are wrong as well as the radar blisters.
I was very excited when I heard of this conversion, but ended up very disappointed when I saw it in my local model shop.
Some one scratch built once about a year or so ago out of white card. It was very accurate from what I remember of it. They said it was going to be released. That is the one I thought BlackDog were doing,

Andy (Storm Miniatures) was working on one (a long time ago now!). Don't know what became of it? You still out there Andy?
