The only thing is: I never see these kits, or else they must be released in small numbers and then sell out. What about the Hobby Boss (?) SCUD kit? Never did see anyone selling it.

HobbyBoss Scud is a 1/72-kit planned for 2019 (according to Scalemates) so I don't think you have missed it yet.
In 1/35 there is one from Trumpeter, nr 01019, and also the tracked version, nr 01024.
There is also a planned one from Meng which to my knowledge hasn't materialised yet, kit nr SS-007.

Are you going to write a variation of this in every new Trumpeter thread? They don't see it, and they have dozens of announced kits waiting to see the light of day. Just keep waiting like everyone else.

I really like the Iskander, too, not to mention the transport version of the MAZ - it‘s great to see all these kits of Soviet/Russian eight-wheelers the last few years, especially mounting monstrous missles/rocket launchers or pods/AAA systems, etc. Awesome.
