Actually, it looks like there are just faint lines that show where to place the boxes. A little light sanding and they should disappear.

surprisingly, trumpy should have release MLRS/ATAM.

If you mean ATACMS, the launcher is the same for both standard M26 MLRS rockets and ATACMS. The only difference is a slightly different rear and front plate on the rocket pod. It is made to look like any other MLRS so you can't tell which one is an ATCMS shooter. On the right is an ATACMS launch pod container with the smooth end caps. Standard MLRS M26 launch pod container. Notice the dished end caps. These are the type in the kit. You could easily fill and sand the kit M26 end caps to resemble ATACMS ones.

I hope that isn't the finished product of the MLRS box art...its pretty lame. Though it looks like they have it at White Sands Missile Range/Fort Bliss though.

The box-art means nothing to me. I am more concerned with what is in the box. From what I can tell, it will be really nice. I am curious what decal options will be available in the US version. It would be nice to see marking for my old unit; 1-39 FA (MLRS), 3 ID from the invasion of Iraq -- Phoenix!

I agree Gino. I'd like to see unit marking from a unit from Ft. Sill

The E-100 variant was probably another dead-end at a time when bigger meant bigger target.

Its not like its really hard to source decals to make bumper codes for it now...
OCT 02, 2017 - 05:41 PM
I agree, bumper numbers are the easy part. I am more interested if it has the stencils that are all over the LLM in both white (NATO camo) and black (sand). That would make it much easier to do either version.
