if it is a fairly recent model, you can contact revell's website and order a replacement....they sell spare parts and such.

Hi Ian!

If you can't find the missing part you can check out this aricle that Hoser posted earlier, it may solve your problem with a little effort from you. "One thing that has worked for me for casting small, not *too* intricate parts - Stick your master to a piece of glass with rubber cement. Spray it with a cheap, wax-based furniture polish, buff off any excess. Get some clear silicone caulking (around $1.00 a tube at Wal-Mart) and cover your master with it. I use a toothpick for the initial (thin) coat to work the silicone into the crevices and to make sure there are no air bubbles (clear helps you see what you are doing) then just blop on enough for strength and to easily handle. When it dries, remove it from the glass, pop out your master and fill the mold with 5-minute epoxy. This works best with masters that have one flat side and I have re-used molds like this several times with no problems. And you cant beat the price."
