    Nothing heard - out to you!

    I'm in the process of building an early Panzer 3 and Panzer 4; they are well advanced but I've 'lost' the folding antenna and base on both of them - stupid boy Warren! I've searched the Internet for replacements but without success; I can find metal late-patterns but they're clearly not an option. Do any of you good people know of any replacement manufacturers in metal, resin, or even plastic? I'm reluctant to buy complete sprues from the manufacturers because of the unnecessary cost and wasted items; as a last resort I will scratch build but I'm feeling sufficiently disenchanted at the moment that this is a bit of a pain in the sphincter.

    Steve,

    Do you have a photo of the offenders?
    This can usually help - even if its a picture of the build instructions.

    Paul.

      Riich models did a set a while ago - with a generator - think it retails around £12 !!
      Aber also did a set again a few years ago - the last ones I saw were in Australia :astonished:

      Try these:-

      Base:- £1.59 - have seen these as much as £5 !!

      Ariel

      Then use drop down box for aerial - £1.99.

      HTH,

      Paul.
