One big chunk of resin and a slightly more complex set of resin becomes obsolete ....
Feels like an idea for a campaign coming on: Superseded.
Those resin kits or conversions where there is now a styrene kit on the market.

Always thought that this was an interesting subject to build; it's just that I had so many other things waiting on the bench so I'm glad I didn't succumb to either of your plights. Looking forward to a comprehensive build article.

I'm thrilled with this news! I always wanted to build this but wasn't thrilled at trying to find the resin conversion. Here's hoping they include interior details.

If they haven’t changed anything since they displayed the prototype sprues, it’s disappointing that RFM didn’t take advantage of the fact that the complete top sides of the turret open up and do an interior, since this is such a unique vehicle. I built the first conversion released by MB Models 20 years ago (a solid block) but still have the AEF Designs one that does have an open turret and interior, which I’ll probably combine with this new kit.
