Hi everybody!

My name is Patrick, and I´m new in this forum.

I´m building an old 1/35 Kingtiger (Henschel turret) from Tamiya which I got from a friend. Unfortunately two hatches (driver and radio-operator) are missing and now I try to get some spare parts of it. Has someone of you guys an idea where I can get them? Is there a special manufacturer who sells thes kind of spare parts in 1/35 scale.

I would be really glad if someone could help me.

Greetings,
Patrick

Hi

Try Rainbow Ten, they sell kit sprues but you need to know the number of the sprue. Also availability will depend on age of kit.

Hi Patrick,
I have a lot of Tiger spareparts, but am by no means a Tiger expert.
Show me what it is exactly that you need and I'll try and help you out once I get home.

Hi Ron,

this would be great. I found this link in that forum which shows the two hatches I mean.
