Adding to the intrigue, WOT Express released a mysterious teaser image accompanied only by the cryptic label:

The background used in the teaser image is the same one previously associated with the Assembly Shop, prompting players to wonder: is another Assembly Shop event just around the corner?
A Possible New Assembly Shop?
If true, this would be a somewhat unusual move. The last Assembly Shop event—featuring the tier X 
DBV-152—concluded just over two months ago. Launching another one so soon would be unprecedented, at least based on past patterns.
Currently, two other tier X vehicles are marked as release-ready in the game files:
However, the release window appears tight, and no official roadmap has been shared for either vehicle. Furthermore, according to leaks from WOT Express, the MBT-B will not be introduced via the Assembly Shop, ruling it out as a candidate for this mysterious event.
A Return of Past Assembly Vehicles?
Speculation has also been swirling for a while about older Assembly Shop vehicles making a return. The community has long requested a second chance to obtain these exclusive tanks, and this teaser may be the first real hint that Wargaming could be preparing just such an event.
I can’t believe that WG are holding an assembly shop in such a short span of time. Perhaps it will be confirmed with a vehicle from the past or a new vehicle, but I can’t imagine it. Even more surprisingly, some sources suggested that the MBT-B might be the reward vehicle for the root box. WTF
Assembly shop or a new black market variation?
Bringing back tanks from the old assembly shops doesn’t sound like a bad idea, what do you guys think?
Has originality died?
originality? what? the fuck you think the dbv is? a grille, but 100% better. is that originality?
maybe if they sold unskinned tanks in very limited quantities like, say, 1000, but knowing WG they would put up above 10k of 780 or whatever, making the tank no longer rare or adding even more cancer dbv into the mm
if its its just 780 getting sold again for now, we are safe from DBVs for at least 3 years lol
Past assembly shop tanks shouldn’t be rare, there’s more than enough fomo-shit in wot already. Just let first time buyers have their fun for a year or two, and them make them available again.
I have 3 assembly shop tanks, and I couldn’t care less if wg makes them less rare or special.
Every step away from fomo-shit is great imo. I have 3 of the past assembly tanks, and there’s absolutely no reason why others should never have access to them. Another round of assembly, bond store or some other way, if WG decides to offer those tanks again, I’m all for it.
It would be funny if they came back cheaper than ever, like those times when the Foch 155, the FV 183 and the Obj 268/5 were on the black market and right now they are in the bond store lol
Would love to get a shot at the assembly shop tanks I missed.
There should be some way to obtain past assembly tanks, possibly after some grace period. Idc if they’re available for assembly again, added to the bond shop or some other way. And that’s from someone who has 3 of those tanks, there’s more than enough fomo-bullshit in wot already…
AFAIK. we can buy previous assembled tanks in this event. maybe with credit.
Supply and demand in-game economics…they have zero reasons to change from that model.
That sounds racist!
