Good Times/Bad Times for Modern Russians

BAD TIMES: I've been after some ACE T-90s and tracked down some at a US online store. Ordered four but they e-mailed me to say they only had two left (and this is the bad bit :( ) and they were now out of production. Hope he's wrong, although I tracked down two more for myself on E-Bay. I did have a word with the S&S fellows about doing them if I couldn't get the kits a few weeks back and they said they could do a conversion of their T-72 Dolly Parton, presumably if they get enough requests.

GOOD TIMES: I've just had a look at the prototype of Cromwell Models resin BMP-T at Jamison's in Glasgow and it's rather stunning. They're not in production right now (he's waiting for resin) but I'm getting one as soon as they're out.
 
Just had some more information from the store, it seems we were both right. The T-90s are currently out of production but they're going to do another run around March. Wonder if they're redoing the turret to match the most recent version (drops one of the SHTORA "headlights" for more reactive armour. Seems the reduced armour coverage wasn't worth the fuller ATGM jamming suite).
