Stryker M1131 Trumpy kit

[spud]

bought this yesterday, Ive been tempted to build one of these for a while now because they are So fecking Cool looking with so many cool lines for weathering.



This is of Course my First Ever Really Modern Build, the most Modern thing ive bult to date is a Vietnam gun truck wich isnt finished yet, You can see that here

Hoping to make a start today

someone itching to build another ;D didn't know would be that fast when your thinking for another build... that kit is perfect for weathering... seems like the trend nowadays, is almost wheeled rather than tracks

 

[spud]

hehe these are awsome looking kits. 8 wheels will be better than 24 on a tiger

 

[Eastrock]

Well I'm actually waiting for the BTR-80 from Trumpy... already seen the test shot, its pack with details nothing compared to a DML kit

 

[spud]

Ditto on the BTR 80 for me, and the BRDM 2, and the T64s, and, and, and.......Ouch.....that was my wallet biting back.

I found this at http://umm-usa.com/onlinestore



I'm think they have kits for all the Strykers, or this one probably fits all the Stryker models as it appears to be the same body. (It's all assumptions though, I know nothing about armor)

 

[spud]

ya its nice, but i think its gona have to take a miss thins time. thanks for sharing tough, i may get one sfor my next stryker down the line
