1/48 scale Wildcat canopy

Can anyone point me in the direction of a new canopy set for the Tamiya 1/48th Wildcat? Both parts were damaged in construction. I need a supplier that can ship either to Ireland or to my daughter’s in Texas.

shipping to TX wont be a problem.

I’ll second that, I like Squadron’s vacuform canopies. I just have to pack a litte Silly Putty in them before cutting, to help keep the piece rigid and avoid slippage.

Phil… got it. PM your mailing address to me and I will send it out.

It’s a Falcon vac canopy. They make, or did at tone time, the Squadron canopies.
