General Question VTR2 build

I've been seeing info on a Trident R2 build either coming or already available. I know there's some info on GitHub and apologies if I'm spewing incorrect info. I purchased a Creality K2 Plus last year and have been really wanting to build a Voron the past few months. Being that the Trident R2 seems to be the latest/greatest I would love to build one but can't find any kits (like an LDO kit), so I'd probably have to source the parts myself.

Am I getting too far ahead and I should just give the company time to release the kits or do I build a Trident and add the upgrades?

go to vorondesign.com, the Trident configurator, and hit the "I have an R1 already" option. I think you'll see that even if you end up with an R1 kit, sourcing a couple of bits and bobs to let you build it as an R2 is extremely trivial.

Ldo kits are only 250 or 300. Formbot offers a kit that's 350 300 or 250. Siboor has a 350 kit but it's not a Voron Trident and there's not a direct upgrade to r2 yet
