Thanks for the pictures. I can't wait to get one. I'm hoping I can use the wheels on my Panzer Shop BTR-60, their wheels are horrible.

Now if only they will release a BTR-70, 80 and new BMP 1 and 2.

Kaleu,

E.T. models, and others, already have replacement wheels:

Trumpeter have announced their intent to do the BTR-70 and BTR-80. Nothing on the BMPs yet but the BRDM-2 series is also coming.

Saul, thanks for the update on the wheels and the BTR's. I have a half completed BTR-70 that I was building as Soviet vehicle in Afghanistan, but the DML kit just needs too much work to improve the detail. I hope Trumpeter puts out a good kit.

Thanks for showing this saul, thats alot of tiny parts. Are you going to build this? I dont think a sharkmouth would be too out of place.

... plus an African country did put a French turret on theirs, plus the Cubans have done some crazy conversions as well.
