Yup, announced and discussed here back in OCT '25.
Unless they’ve corrected the issues I mentioned, not worth buying.
I’m still at a loss as to how this interior works with either Tamiya or Academy. Nothing in it works for those kits, neither the floor nor the seats,
If you are updating a Tamiya or Academy M2A2 to an M2A3 or an M2A2 ODS SA, the interior can be used in them, not earlier versions.
Why of course! Update the Tamiya kit to the A3, (with all of the other things that need to be done) and buy this awful set to go with it!
Or purchase the Meng kit (still the best Bradley kit out there) that comes with a complete interior.

Some people still have older Tamiya or Academy Bradley’s and the Legend M2A3 update sets. Not everyone buys the latest kits. It gives them options, that is all.
I do agree that the Meng Bradley kits are the best on the market today.
Again, impeccable logic.
Folks may remember I did the conversion before Legend’s set came out. Did I mention I worked for them? I’m well aware of the work involved.
This thread is on the M3A2 ODS, but it starts out showing what I did to do the A3 conversion before there was a set. It shows just a smattering of what you’d need to do these days. Oh, and the Legend set does not include the Driver’s Enhanced Vision unit. You still have to scratch that as well. The Legend set? Is that with or without ERA?
If anyone wants to do what you suggest - they can save money and buy one of my unused sets. Why? Ummm, because even I don’t use them.
Then there’s the new track from Jacques, of course. Oh, and the Magic Factory set. Yes, I can how attractive this option is. ![]()
Especially when I can still get the Meng M2A3 for $50.00 shipped.
Sorry, Magic Factory. It’s still a stinker, like much of the features in the complete kits.
Options. Like I said, not everyone buys the new sets if they already have other kits, nor agrees with your take on it. Others’ opinions may vary.
