Anybody know a stockist in the UK? I want at ;east 3 or 4 and they look like the best bet for a modelling Klutz like me. They are chap as chips from Amazon the US, but I an't seem to get them shipped to the UK. Any thoughts? Or if anyone is looking to off load some 1/32 or 1/35 Shermans or knows of an alternative product…. |

Take a look at the Rubicon Shermans. You should be able to order them from Northstar. DM |

Did a quick Google search and came up with Testors does a 1:32 scale Sherman snap-kit…so it should be really easy to build in a few minutes. I believe they are already painted too. Here is a link for a company in the U.S.:
link …But since Testors is a popular company, should be available in your area…try Amazon U.K. Best of luck. P. |

See,s not. The BMC Sherman can be found, but not, it would seem, Testors or the EZ model. |

Not going to spend £40.00 GBP apiece though!
I did n't know about the Testors model, but but now that I'm aware of it I'm surprised no-one seems to stock it in the UK. I'll maybe end up getting BMC ones, but EZ or Testors would be much more preferable. |

Well if you do want to do anything, you pay for what you get…I build 1:48 scale models for CoC games and find them way cheaper in costs and looks nicer than any pre-fab store bought stuff…good luck! P. |

Agreed; you get what you pay for. Testors and EZ build are both fine for me, and they are very reasonably priced, it's just the postage that's impossible. |
