Recommendations on a new kit.....

[TBadger]

Preferably a very high detail military resin or styrene kit. Been looking into the Mi-35 Hind variants and I've always been a fan since I first saw one in Metal Gear: Solid. The Havoc wouldn't be a bad choice either. For armour I was looking into an M1A2 Abrams SEP, the new Zvezda T-90 or a Bradley / Russian Equivalent

I wanted to implore the board, since there's a good chance that someone has built a great quality kit and has a solid recommendation.

A link to buy would be greatly appreciated as well ;D

I REALLLLLLLLY want a Zvezda T-90 Kit......cant seem to find one in stock anywhere though. if you happen to see a Dragon 1/72 Hind or the T-90 I'd snap that up right quick ;D

mabe scott has one??

I looked, and it seems that he's out at the moment. I would buy them right now if he had them in stock

If you're reading this : Hobby Boss 1/72 Mi-24V Hind E and Zvezda T-90....I needs them! The lack of hobby shops around the Jacksonville FL area is maddening. All I have is Hobby Lobby and a few tiny shops full of RC parts

Well, low and behold, a friend of mine from back home had a Zvezda sitting around from his brother....picked it for 20 bucks Now time to wait for a 1/35 or 1/72 Hind

Nope, sorry no T-90s....tried to get it from my supplier last week and they are sold out.

I am sure my US suppliers have some...but the difference in price from my CDN supplier that has Zvesda is about $10 difference...which jumps the retail price up substantially. So I await a restock from CDN supplier.
