Blast Models announces a conversion kit for the VAB Valorise, the up-armored version of the WAPC. Although the Heller kit is a real dog, it`s tempting for me...

Buy it, start it and then we might get one in plastic.
Take one for the team!

I don't quite remember - was it the VAB that was in the Bosnian film "No Man's Land"? If so, I might be tempted to muddle through it even if it is a bad kit.

Don't know about a French VAB in this movie, but they used a TAM BOV-M :
