Vespid Models – VS720035 – Buffalo A1 MPCV Mine Protected Clearance Vehicle

Description:

Unassembled plastic model kit in 1/72 scale of a U.S. Buffalo six-wheeled mine resistant ambush protected (MRAP) armored vehicle specifically designed for clearance of explosives, equipped with a robotic arm and claw from within the armored hull via a mounted camera and sensory equipment, to safely dispose the explosive devices such mines.

The Buffalo entered service in 2003, mainly with the U.S. Army, but Pakistan and other countries also operate the Buffalo, in particular several countries used it during their deployments to Afghanistan lend leased by the U.S. Forces.

To our eyes though not confirmed, this kit seems to be same kit than T-Model – TK7360 – Buffalo 6×6 MPCV A1 Mine Protected Clearance Vehicle with different PE (photo-etched) parts and different 3D printed parts. Pictures shared on social networks about sample models built looks like exactly the same kit, but it’s not confirmed yet.
