Replacement parts
Posted by de009 on Saturday, December 8, 2012 1:17 PM

Hi Guys;
Has anyone ever tried to get replacement parts from Italeri?
I just sent an email to Italeri asking for replacement  tracks for
my 1/72 scale 250/3.

I was successful getting the turret bin replaced on my Italeri 1/72 scale Panzer IV kit. It was short-shot and incompletely molded.

That's not all that unreasonable of a shipping charge across the pond. Smile

Thanks Bill,that is pretty cheap.I also checked out GD hobbies i think there in NZ.

They have tracks for a 250/10 at $1.43 US,BUT the shipping charge is $28.00.I think i'm going

to try and fix the broken one.I am thinking about gluing a thin piece of plastic on the inside of the

tracks and assemble this side on the bottom.thi would be covered by ground work.
