I have seen a few on Ebay. I have built this kit and I have to say it was a great build with very few problems. Disapprove [V]

Sadly enough when i moved i left the built kit at my parents house and my sisters kids had a field day with it. Banged Head [banghead]

So now i to have to look for another kit. Banged Head [banghead]

Pix is right about the True Details set. It adds a lot to and A-20 kit. I've used it twice for the A-20's in my collection.

You may want to also invest in True Details resin wheels. (the kit wheels have a "fish scale" pattern). The set also includes the raft, if you want to pose the canopy open.

Hey Tango;
If you don't mind the wait I've seen the A-20B/C, A-20G, A-20J, and the P-70 on EvilBay ranging from $9.99 to 24.99 and from 2 to 7 days for the auction

Many thanks guys. I saw the A-20J on Great Models and ordered one. It was one of those "I just had to...." purchases!

Cheers,

Darren.

If you can't find it, just keep your eyes on AMTech releases.

AMTech seems to have a lot of AMT aircraft molds at their disposal for reissue and inprovements. If the A-20 kit is good, I suspect you'll be seeing it in their line before much longer.

At this point, I think you're best bet would be Ebay. It's been a while (close to 10 years) since that kit has been first released and I don't think any other manufacturer has picked up the molds for a re-release.

Hi everyone,

I saw this kit in a magazine in the UK and I've tried shopping around for it on the web and I can't find one. It's a great kit and I'd love to build one. If any of you know where I could get my hands on one, I'd appreciate your help.

I've already tried hannants/squadron/e-hobbies/wonderland with no success, so any other ideas would be most welcome.

Many thanks,

Darren. Wink [;)]
