Looking for 1/48 Resin Russian Light Tanks and AC
Says it in the title really.

I'm in need of 1/48 Resin WW2 Russian Light Tanks and Armoured Cars.

I'm sure i saw someone in the US doing some a few months ago,but nothing is showing up in my searches.

Resin is hard to find in 1/48. Maybe Blitzkrieg or 1st Corps. can cover them in future releases. If you don't mind plastic kits, there are a few more options. I use plastic models for wargaming and they hold up to the "rigors of the tabletop" just fine. Here's a list of what I found in 1/48:

BA-64 (Tamiya)
BA-20 (Ace Models)
BA-6 (Uni Models)
FAI-M (Ace Models)
BT-5 in 1/50 resin (PMD)

What I don't like about resin is that it's brittle and thin sections such as tracks often chip off. An easy enough fix if you can find the broken off bits but too often you just won't.
