I need 2 M109s. The new Paladin has a different turret than that used by the Danish army. I therfor wonder if anyone has a couple of M109 A2/A3 kits for sale?

The Italeri M109A2/A3 has been boxed by both Testors and Revell of Germany.

I've noticed that they have been re-boxed by Revell (thoug Testor is new to me); however, I can't seem to find Revell's either?

Here is a photo of the M109/A1 and M109A2 that Testors reboxed. I've included the boxart for the RoG kit as well. It may help you look for the kits.

The M109A6 is the most current version and is in use today by the US Army. It is available in both an Italeri boxing and in a Revell boxing with different decals and an added Mk 19 Grenade Launcher for it.

It is the Italeri kit. Revell reboxes both it (M109A6 aka Paladin) and the M109A3GA1. Most of the modern US armor RoG reboxes are US vehicles either stationed in Germany or German variant of the US vehicle.

Your about a month too late Kenneth, I had several of the Italeri M109 kits for sale in different variants that went on ebay quite cheaply, you might want to have a quick search there to see if anyone else has one for sale.

I have a couple left I'll probably never build, but the shipping will not be cheap. I'd suggest checking ebay from time to day. If that doesn't work, contact me.
