Why do they never have the models you want?

[Wellsprop 0]

It is so annoying when you go on to the internet and search for a model wich only exits on the over side of the world? At the moment I have P-51D crazy and I am looking for a 1/32 scale P-51D "Cripes a mighty 3rd" and I can only find a diecast one by Forces of Valor and unfortunatly it's not what I'm looking for, any help would be appreciated.

 

This is for all those modelers who can't find their model.

I have several Hasegawa 1/32 kits and the Eagle Editions decals above but in 1/48. (IIRC).

I to have has issues finding decals for 1/48th scale kits... some are OOP.

(I would dig into my stash... but I am deployed at the moment)

It's even more annoying when you finally give up on the model you wanted and buy the closest one you can find, and a week later you see the one you wanted in the same shop that kept you waiting for months.

If you are willing to jump mediums from plastic to card there is this one here:

Can buy it here:

although it may a tad too difficult for a beginner.

Either way good luck!
