Dave,
I agree with you. If I had just one choice I'd pick a decent new tool BMP-1.
We also need more good conversions, and good full resin kits of lesser known vehicles, hopefully CMK will release their GTS-M and SS-21 soon...
I would also like more aftermarket tracks such as BDM, T80, etc....
Looks like we're getting some BMD kits though, after SKIF, Eastern Express and Zvezda should release their kits, including BMD-2s, wonder if they are related to SKIF's tooling?
Cheers,
Christophe

T-80s that need much work (Dragon).We are all fussy and when we get a new good kit we look for problems( i include myself here).How many more Tiger 1 and 2's do i have to look forward to I mean all those different camo patterns and extra jerry cans maybe no air filters wait I know add brass zimmerit. What version of a Sherman do we not have yet? M4A2E8? or M4A3E8 with the right tracks for WWII. Where are the clean crisp BMPs T-64/80/90/Black eagle.
