IBG announces the "Green Devil" in 1/35 styrene!

Cool announcement from IBG Models: KTO Rosomak - modern Polish APC in 1/35 scale.
This vehicle was used by Polish Army in Iraq and Afghanistan, it had proven to be an excellent fighting vehicle that offers great protection to its crew. The nickname "Polish Green Devil" was given to it by the local Taleban fighters, because of it's resilience and good firepower.

From the all knowing wikipedia:
"The KTO Rosomak (KTO for Kołowy Transporter Opancerzony - pol. Wheeled Armored Vehicle; Rosomak is Polish for Wolverine) is 8x8 multi-role military vehicle produced by WZM S.A. The vehicle is a licensed variant of Patria's Armored Modular Vehicle.
In December 2002, the Polish Ministry of National Defense signed a contract to buy 690 Patria AMV vehicles, to be manufactured in Poland. The main competitors of the AMV were the MOWAG Piranha and Steyr Pandur. The Polish version features major changes from the original Patria AMV, such as the ability to be transported by C-130 Hercules or to swim through water obstacles. As part of the initial order of 690 vehicles were to be delivered in two basic variants: 313 combat IFV and 377 transport/special base vehicles.
There are several variants of the "Wolverine":
