Lovely!

Might be sensible to sell a separate file for the turret or turrets. Lots of those were mounted in the Stalin line, often enough by the simple expedient of burying the tank, leaving the turret clear.

There are more than that...  there are at least 4 different suspension layouts as well.

Easily done ;)

Suspension is wrong for the early model and I can't be bothered to change that too...

I don’t mean the pre-production item, I mean the actual production version. See the line drawing. Left hand column, second from the bottom. Suspension looks identical to me.

Just saying that would open it up to all the BoB fans.

Having scoured the internet looking for pictures there are several suspension/track setups, some looks like it's off an FT-17 some looks very differnet.   Most of them aren't in that image! 

I can do the turret easily if there is a use for it.

Be careful with internet searches. There’s a widespread confusion out there betwixt the MS-1 and the so called Ruski Reno, essentially a knock off of the Ft-17. There are even conflicting theories on whether any were actually manufactured or whether they were refurbished, captured FT-17s.
