Romanoff, there are at least two currently on eBay for about $24 opening bid.

I used a resin turret from AEF designs, but the last time I checked their website it wasn't listed anymore. The kit's worst problems are with the hull believe it or not.

Jim is correct, Tamiya has re-released it, but if you can't get that one, you may be able to pick one from Academy, it's the same kit, but also out of production for a while. Might try ebay, they turn up there every now and again.

Romanoff,

They have re-released it

From what I here it is not a very accurate kit. I still got one any way.

Good luck
