Can any one tell me where I can find an unbuilt Tamiya kit of the M 551 Sheriidan[:(]. I knoww it is out of production and I can not find it any where, not evan at model show vender locations. It would be nice if Tamiya would re-issue this kit! I need this kit to complete my collection of Vietnam AVF. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated [:D]!
Romanoff,
They have re-released it

From what I here it is not a very accurate kit. I still got one any way.
Good luck
Jim is correct, Tamiya has re-released it, but if you can’t get that one, you may be able to pick one from Academy, it’s the same kit, but also out of production for a while. Might try ebay, they turn up there every now and again.
Thanks to Build 22 and Steve for the recon. I picked one up today and your right, it is of the old standard. How about an update on the turrent. My hobby shop guru couldn’t help me. Sorry for the long delay in reply. I don’t get on-line to often [
].
Glad it worked out for you -romanoff

Good luck
I used a resin turret from AEF designs, but the last time I checked their website it wasn’t listed anymore. The kit’s worst problems are with the hull believe it or not.
Romanoff, there are at least two currently on eBay for about $24 opening bid.
