Accurate miniatures models

Hello and thank you Fermis,

I live in Canada but I do have family in the United States. I would be intersted in going forward with a game plan to purchase the Accurate Miniatures 1/48th Avenger tbm-3. Please email at rorydthornton@gmail.com, Look forward to hearing from you and again Thanks for your help. 

Are you in the U.S.?

I have both TBF and TBM boxings from AccuMini.

FunFact...TBF and TBM are the same...the TBF designation was for Grumman built Avengers...when production went to GM, they got the TBM designation. That started during the production of the TBF-1C...every variant afterwards was a TBM. Anyway, the only outward difference between the 2 kits, is the cowling (different cowl flaps...and possibly the exhaust).

Anyway, since I have two in 1/48, and I really don't build much 48th stuff anymore, I could part with one of them, at a fair price for you and me both.

The Accurate Miniatures TBM-3 kit was also reboxed by Academy, about 5 years or so ago.

I built the Italeri boxing of that kit. If I recall, it was around $35 at the hobby shop around 2004 when I bought it. Italeri kit #2644. Ooof--just reading the instructions I have here, saying that was a TBF/TBM-1. Not sure if Italeri repopped multiple kits by Accurate Miniatures, but this is the one I have. I'd try Ebay or try looking around at the vendor rooms at model shows. You might find a good deal there. Hope this helps.

Italeri re-released the Accurate Miniatures TBM Avenger under their own label several years ago. Mine is in locked storage, so I don't have ready access to a kit number, and I don't remember what I had paid for it. They may still be out there in the market.
