If anyone has bought these from forgeworld before, it says that they are supplied with current leman russ parts. Do these include the current leman russ hulls as a spare?

Thanks,

Forge World will supply you with complete sprues.

The model photos on Forge World's website only show it using the plastic track sides and track links, which come on one sprue (along with the plastic hull floor). However, the product description says "This model is supplied with the current plastic Leman Russ parts including sponsons." The sponsons come on the other sprue, so it looks like you get both sprues.

Thanks for the confirmation!

I'm only going by what's on the website; I've not actually bought one myself.

I have bought a bunch of these and I can confirm they come with the whole spruce, so you will have the extra hulls, with which I have yet to find a use for lol.

The Mars Alpha Leman Russ is defined by the upper structure of the tank.

What you get in the box is the lower hull and track units section, which is all on the Primary sprue of the Leman Russ hull. You probably get the same with the Bombard as well. The Leman Russ kit is split with the upper hull as part of the different kits, be it the Demolisher or Battle Tank variant, which also has a slightly different engine deck. The Mars Alpha replaces the whole upper structure from the engine deck to the turret mount and the bow gun position and view port. The rest is the standard pattern Leman Russ.
