Carlos, where does this news come from? I think this kit was released in 2012, kit 7483.

I must admit that the Dragon website is a bit chaotic at times, so it can be hard to see what is new.

It did look like the BT-42 is being released however.

Hello Matthew,
It has been announced for February 2018 with code DRA 7577, so I guess it should be different... despite the drawing looks the same.

Will see

Always thought that it was strange that this kit was never upscaled and offered in 1/35th. After waiting a couple of years I ended up buying the AFV Club kit.
