New Trumpeter kit out. Something I've never seen before, the 9P157-2.
From a quick perusal through the instructions it looks like it will take a bit of work to build this. The vehicle is based on the BMP-3 so the kit has some of the BMP-3 interior which is wrong. If you have it traveling it looks like a straight forward build. If you have it in "combat" mode it doesn't quite make the cut. The show the top door closed with the pintle sticking through it. Unfortunately that's not right. The door stays open and there is a magazine with an extra 15 I think missiles. So to have it in firing mode the full door can be used and you will need to get some really good pics of the magazine and make something that looks like it.

This one has a good shot of the top.

The side loader looks pretty good I think.
