New release of the ZSU-23/4 "Shilka"

[RangerNeil]

For those with an interest in modern Soviet armour it seems Zvezda are releasing a new kit of the ZDU-23/4 "Shilka" - probably most infamous for firing the first shots of the Soviet Afghan expedition. I got this message from arma-models.ru tonight and I am sorely tempted!! For those interested 1750 Rubles is about £18.00 at current rates.

A little unexpected, but very interesting novelty from Zvezda - the legendary ZSU-23-4M, aka "Shilka" in 1/35 scale!
On this occasion, we are launching a simple, clear and rich pre-order!
Absolutely everyone will receive:
- Four cool chiseled barrels, increased detail and copy number, each barrel consists of three parts!
- A very realistic and easy-to-use material for simulating viewing and other optical devices, which perfectly simulates antireflection, and due to its transparency, you can give the optics any shade! The original model does not have parts for imitating optics (transparent), so this is a very necessary "extra"!
- 50% discount on future photo-etching! With the help of our kit, the model will take a perfect and complete look!
- You can also purchase correct rollers of increased detail for this model from Master Club with an excellent discount - 20%! The rollers are located in the card with the model, in the accessories section. To purchase them, be sure to put them in the cart with the model and place your order! The discount will work automatically!
All add-ons are in stock (except for photo-etching) and will be sent along with the model, no need to wait! Please note that only one set of rollers at a discount can be purchased with each model!
For Arma Club cardholders we additionally prepared:
- Metal antenna input for the R-123 radio station!
- Metal antenna!
- Cool copper cable!
- Discount for future photo-etching - 80%!
- 40% discount on skating rinks from Master Club! (put them in the cart with the model, the discount will be automatic)

That kit would be an instant buy for me. I'm a big fan of Soviet air defense systems.

I REALLY want someone to come out with a SNR-75 "Fan Song" and a S-75 Dvina "Guideline." I'd be able to make some super cool Vietnam dioramas with those.

That,s what you call a proper sale bargain .....guessing the word rollers means "resin wheels"
