Asiatam list it on their website, tho not for sale yet - I'd suggest checking back regularly to see when it comes up again.

Make one your self. i did. Just used a T34/85 turret and modified it. It actually is not very hard and turns out well. i actually have an HL KV 1 I converted. It is complete except for electronics. KV85.

Pics? Build thread? I like the KV-85 much more than the KV-1 or KV-2.

I never took any pics when I built it but I could probably take a few and post them if you like.

Yeah i would go with the Asiatam kit since it will have the extra turret ring armor and additional parts for the conversion. to do it my way if you make a mistake you can ruin a perfectly good T34/85 turret. I took some time doing mine and I'm happy with it but it was not an easy conversion.
