I guess I'm calling on the armor guys for this one. I bought a few Tamiya Military miniature kits to get detail pieces for a boat I'm building but there is one more thing I lack. Does anyone happen to know which kit in that series would have a fire ax or two? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I don't know of any 1/35 kits that have a fire ax. Most have a standard splitting ax, one side flat. There is a 1/32 Monogram fire truck that has a couple axes, along with some other fire gear that may be usable, like the long pole w/a hook on the end. It comes up on eBay frequently. Here's one.
There is also a guy out there who makes 1/24, 1/25, and 1/32 fire accessories and parts for trucks. I can't remember the company, but I bet if you go onto a model car or truck website, they can help you out.
What are you building exactly?
Good luck.

@ Jimmy,
It probably wouldn't be hard to make one, actually two, myself. I'm getting down to the short hairs on my finish date for a fun run my local R/C club is having and there is still more to do.
@ Gino,
Thanks for that info. I'm building a Dumas USS Crockett. It's a sport scale at 1/39 but 1/32 and 1/35 accessories work pretty good on her.
