What has happened to the Tamiya T-55 in 1/35? I’ve been looking on-line and nobody has it in stock.
Check eBay, Sprue Brothers or the Missing Lynx trade forum, it often turns up there.
Mike… Lucky Model shows them as available. I have ordered form theme several time without any problems at all.
That link I copied seems to not want to work. Just search for it…it’s there.
DANGER!!! DANGER!!!
Do they show it as ‘Available’ or ‘In Stock’ because, with Luckymodel there is a big difference. In stock means they have it on hand, ready to throw in a box and ship to you. ‘Available’ means that they still see it listed by their vendors, they are pretty sure there is still a kit or two kicking around the planet… somewhere… and they will get it to you… sometime.
Let me give you an example - I just did a luckymodel order in Dec. Two of the kits I ordered were listed as ‘Available’ (I didn’t really notice that when I put my order together [bnghead]). After receiving the partial order, I waited a month, then e-mailed luckymodel to find out the status of the other two kits - one is on a 3 - 4 month backorder. The other? They don’t know when, exactly, they will have it, but they did get restocks of that kit ONCE last year…
So, buyer beware if it is listed as ‘Available’…
Other than that, Luckymodel rocks…[:P]

Wingy, if you are still lurking about - your services are requested in Winter Warriors to address a T-34 issue…
Did you check Tamiya’s website? Look for it there and see if they still make it.
