Hi,

Revell Germany has a HO gauge BR52..... HO is 1/87, don't know how accurate you want to be, but you just may be able to fuge it.

I don't think your going to be able to find one in 1/72

Hi Jody,

The only one I know of in 1/72 is a Resin kit by CMK or Planet sorry can't remember which one, only thing is its around £70 - 90.

I agree that it was either Planet Armor or CMK that did do or was going to do a BR-52. I could not find it listed on Jadar, but I did see them listed by CMK on Tracks-n-Troops (but not yet released).

Wow! Thanks for the link!
I just received my BR-52 in 1/72 scale from Squadron (Texas USA http://www.squadron.com/ItemDetails.asp?item=PDMV050)
I haven't even opened the box yet!
You can bet I'm going to study the diorama link for ideas!
It'll be my first resin kit... I'll keep you all posted
