Trumpeter: Kits for July Release | Armorama™

Two modern era kits are slated for release next month.

I could definitely be talked into both of these.

As Trumpeter have done a 1/35 SADF Rooikat, I wish that they do 1/35 kits of the SADF Ratel IFV’s (all variants), the SADF Buffel APC ( grandfather of the modern MRAP) and the SADF Caspir APC.

Takom have done the 1/35 SADF Rhino G6 mobile artillery unit. How about a 1/35 G5 towed arty unit, Valkyrie and Bateleur wheeled rocket launchers.

Come on Trumpeter or Takom!!:pray:

Hmm, hope they release the earlier 2S6, as well, especially now that the alternative is OOP (since Panda went bust).

Nice additions to the 1/35 & 1/72 scale worlds.

I built the Panda kit a few years back. One of the most difficult kits I’ve ever put together. A veritable piece of shlt.

I’ve read that it’s overengineered like their BMD-1/2 kits, but didn’t realize it’s that bad.

An additional reason for trumpeter to backdate the announced kit, then (plus, hope they release their own BMD-1/2s after they already did the BMD-3/4/4M).

I had been hoping for a plastic Caspir/Warwolf for years.
