Other then Blast-models of course. The kit I'm looking for is decomisioned at their site, so I thought there might be some other on-line shop that carries them.

Thankful for help!

Greatmodels carries that line, but they don't always have the stuff in stock - ordering it as needed from the manufacturer.

The item I'm looking for was listed as Special Order at Greatmodels, and since it's not available at Blast-models it won't be avaiailable there either.

I'm after their OIF Hummer accesories set. And for once I'm lucky, AFV modeller had ONE set left...

Blas t do some really nice stuff, but they annoy me the way they refer to Hummers. Hummers are the civilian version of the military "Humvee" and the two should not me mixed up.

Just a pet gripe!

So thomas, are you in for the Humvee campaign?

Cheers,
Sean

Yep, but the funny thing is that about one hour later I got a mail from Blast-models saying that they actually had that kit in supply, just their website was showing wrong info. But for me it's a good thing because when I compared the prices in Swedish crowns I saved a lot from ordering from UK instead of directly from Blast-models...
