I've been looking forward to seeing these produced in soft plastic. I've thought, "What a great challenge!" I've saved all my S*R sprews over the years for projects and the plastic has kept it's shape quite nicely. I love those CW Russian Naval guns.

But by the looks of the parts so far they sure appear to be in a hard plastic kit design. In fact, they look very similar to some of HaT's recent hard plastic kits coming out. With the announcement of S*R expanding into tanks it seems a given since these are pretty big cannons.

Bottom line, either way, I'm glad to see that S*R has experienced enough success over the years to keep expanding in unique ways. I hope to see some WWI tanks pics soon!
