Looking for a LAV III for Canada in Afghanistan - coming from Empress

[grant]

NO ONE makes one.

Surprising gap in production as so many close options - I'm thinking of taking a Stryker from Empress and converting it, but it wouldn't be 100%.

Thoughts?

I would have thought an Empress LAV would be a better start (I only have the New Vanguard book and that it is not clear on the differences between LAV user variants).

[Edit] okay, Stryker is derived from LAV III, ignore me....

Tim at King's Hobbies and Games has the 3D models for one and is selling them in 28mm and 20mm

EDIT: http://www.kingshobbiesandgames.com/Default.asp is his site, if it's not there you might need to drop him an email.

I can't seem to find them on the site - do you have a link by chance? Cheers!

I have Empress' LAV-25.  I realize it's not an exact fit, but is it close enough to modify?

I need the turret and a Stryker body essentially. Do you need your turret? 

[Ultravanillasmurf]

Have you asked Empress?

[Tgerritsen]

I'd bet Empress would sell you the LAV-25 turret and a Stryker as a short term fix.  Long term, you should ask if they would be willing to make one.

I do have an email into paul @ Empress but no reply as of yet.

Fingers crossed. 


Wait until you all see my converted Leopard 2A6M Can.

Got an email response from Empress. Couple of months to LAV III!

And Paul posted pics of my Leopard!
