BTR 80

Slowly building my modern forces up in numbers for Modern Bolt Action games.

Came across these 1/50 scale die cast BTR 80's on ebay at a cheap price, so I purchased two and repainted them.

 I'm happy with the way they turned out.


Original colours.

Repainted.


With some Empress 28mm Modern Russians.

Next to an Empress Models BMP3.

    One thing - as I use these too. They aren't 1/50. They are almost exactly 1/55. BTR-80s are 7700mm long... the diecast is 140mm - 7700/140=55.
