I'll just have to build the rest of the stash while sitting here hoping that some manufacturer with a music instrument in the name and logo decides that the modelling market is ready for a 1/35th scale kit.
I congratulate the braille scale modellers.
If it is possible to make and sell all the other large Russian vehicles then there must be a chance for an Iskander as well

I agree that someone like Trumpeter should release this subject in 1/35th!

72nd scale is fine by me. I am buying zvezda's SS-25 Topol which is also 72nd scale.

Now a SS-25 in 1/35 would be something...I can dream.

well, considering the detail shown on the CAD images, I would say it should not be that difficult to use it for 1/35 also...
