Nah... I don't think it will come out anytime soon. This kit has been on the to-be-released list for a while like the Maxx Pro kit. I'd give another year.

The kit was just about ready for release but then the Morris trucks were prioritised over it. It was to be released after them.

Then Bronco underwent management changes.

Currently it is to be released but they won't say when.

As far as I can see it's another desperately wanted kit on the "Never-Never" list :-(

Hi Hisham

I'm really looking forward to this one...hope we see more modern British stuff like a Panther, Husky or Viking.

Contents as shown...Yamaha Grizzly 450, Logic SMT171b Trailer, set of Crossing Capability Short – Quad (GXC(S) Quad) or a pair of ramps to me and you. The combo as per the boxart is from around 2011 onwards; the Yamaha Grizzly 450 was first ordered in 2005 (250) and that trailer was supplied from 2009. Those ramps were added around 2011 which is why there's early photos of the trailer without them. The uniforms and weapons etc limit the set to post 2009. So check your references that combo plus troops in desert dpm would be no good for example..

The set should include: Rider and three other figures. L85A2 TES(H) and L129A1. Mk6 and Mk7 helmets, Patrol Packs, little tiny PRR (Personal Role Radio). Hopefully GPMG ammo boxes...the stowage racks are PE as are the footplates and handbrakes

Not seen the decals yet but heard it might include three options including formation badges, TRF's, rank and ISAF badges among others for...

3 Para, 16 Air Assault Brigade, Operation Herrick XIII

3 Rifles, 11 Light Brigade, Operation Herrick XI and...

1 Yorks, 20th Armoured Brigade, Operation Herrick XV
