It's a bit convoluted, but yes you can buy any parts you want to from the Trumpeter replacement parts department. I've answered this question so many times on Facebook an various post you would think I would have is saved on my computer...

So the process is: find out the Trumpeter kit number, find out the sprue letter/number you want to order, contact joanna@trumpeter-china.com with the information about what you want to order, she will send a Paypal address to make payment, and then wait weeks for the part to arrive.

In my case I wanted the extended bustle from Trumpeter so I specified the M1A2 kit 00927 sprue H. Sprue cost me $3 US with $10 shipping ($13 US total). I'm sure prices are higher now because that is 2019 pricing.

Just saved this post on my computer for the future.

Thanks. Now I know how to get more MG34 Panzerlauf from their Panzer IV kits for my German builds.

Thank you very much that is most helpful.

Hi all!

Well that explains the skill sets Barry! always great to study your work, and I’m in to the recoil issue too. I got the whole kit on Amazon Uk for £100.00 the the bits I needed would have come to that with postage, but I got the whole lot, might try and see if the wheels fit, better detailed than the heng long.
