Yee-haa !!!
Finally !!!
Now there will be new tracks to replace the resin tracks on my Accurate Armour kits:-)
Takom will hopefully try to squeeze as much as possible out of these molds so with some luck we will get all the versions

A current version like "Bulldog" with add-on armor would be very nice, but this one is already very nice.

Finally, allthough the vehicle has always been ugly it also has some attraction, long, long overdue

Brave modelmakers could use the FV432 for 'accurate' conversions of mockups used in movies like Captain America or Saving Private Ryan.
