Good news indeed, even without the newly tooled bits! I'll have to add one (or more) of these to the stash... -YL

Pat, any timeline from Dragon when they will release it? Will it be within the next month or 2? This is my favourite tank.... with the mickey mouse hatch. I already build 2 of this T34/76 1943 kit from Tamiya but it is dated something like 1976... I cannot wait for the Dragon ones...

Very *(%)#&% well put. It is about time! Looks like a good one too. How about the SU-122 (hint)?

Interesting that they took a step back to the Urals group of factories instead of the Zavod 112 versions they've favoured recently. David

Looks good !! I hope they get around to doing the beutepanzer version with the sideskirts and Pz.kpfw. cupola. And a new SU-122 would be nice too !! Cheers jjumbo

Great! Now if they could do the Factory 112 large turrets for the T-34/85, all would be right with the world.
