Title: Project of the Month - Nov 2021 - Soviet BT-7 Calvary Tank
Post by: Rubicon Models on November 01, 2021, 08:52:32 pm

More Soviet goodness... early war BT-7 with Model 1935 and 1937 variant. 

We will look into doing BT-7A and BT-42 depending on work schedule and requests!  We will post some prototype images once they are done too!

The BT-7 could also drive without its tracks, will this version be possible?

Great... just when I think I am getting out, they pull me back in!

Another kit I am going to have to get.

The bad news is that I want to get them now.

The good news is that this project will not be completed anytime soon. That means no worries about how I am going to get a couple of them. Somewhat like the Panzer II. That kit is still not available. For me, that is good and bad.  ???

All components for the Panzer II are now ready for commercial run... soon!  ;)

Excellent, the BT series was the first item in my (admittedly mental) wishlist.

I'd love it if you managed to fit the BT-5 in the same kit (they are just close enough to do it, I'd reckon) but in any case I'm sure to buy a platoon of the 7s for my Barbarossa collection.

Great job!

Cool, better suited to combat with German light tanks.

Is this kit going to be released at Easter, or do you want to correct the typo in the subject line?
