Hi fellas, I originally posted the release of the above item on the forum that shall not be named as a result of an email from a US store but does anyone know where it can be bought over here? Now that the pounds gone through the poop hole against the dollar it costs silly money to get it posted back here. The Canadian dollar is still quite good but I can't find any Canadian stores that flog it. Its a bostin piece of kit and I need one more than world peace as my little god daughter would say.

Hi Abo ive been looking at these and there a nice bit of kit like you ive been looking for U.K.shop that will sell them and the only one that may get some is the tankzone and somehow I dont think they will be cheap there.will keep my eyes open for them and let you know if I find a place that has got them in hopefully in the UK but the EU would do the shipping from the states along with customs charges if found would double the price from the states .
regards pete

There is a company over here that sells 21st century stuff its
www.modellersloft.co.uk . I have enquired with them but they have no knowledge about getting it stocked. Again they are fairly expensive, I recently bought the Indiana jones staff car and truck ( Not really accurate but its 1/16th roughly and can be mucked around with) from good ol Woolies for the same price of ONE of those items from this site (about £29)

Make sure they aren't the 1/32nd scale kits then as I'm sure that $39.99 is the price for those, every other store in the US is 80 to 100 dollars for the 1/18th scale.
