A quick search gives the Trumpeter kit at over £100 in the UK- more than the cost of the WSN T34.

Many thanks for the replies all. Whilst I kinda agree that the Trumpeter route is the way to go for accuracy, I can't justify the £100 + price ticket to simply use the turret and bung he rest away when I am more than happy with the detailing on the WSN hull, especially now I have the metal gears and IBU2 Pro to fit. Guess she stays T34-85, unless I have a go at scratch building the 76 turret..

Many thank again for taking time replying

Wow, and I thought Australian retail was harsh. I've seen them crop up on eBay for around the AU$100 mark, I only paid AU$80 for mine. There are a few in Hong Kong for US$105 (about £75) at the moment, but shipping to the UK would probably be pretty steep.

If there are no Trumpeters at a reasonable price point, the resin turret may be worth investigating. They'd be about £65 or so, and they'd have the advantage of being relatively plug-and-play without the mucking about and remodeling inherent with the Trumpeter.

Yeah, I agree the resin turret is the preferred option, I guess the question is where from Ive searched and searched..........no joy. I know I've seen them before somewhere, one last throw of the dice.
