You don't need to buy kits with missing parts. That's not the sort of kit you're looking for. Now move along.

[oyoy5 275]

Yeah would be nice to know ahead of time lol

[oyoy5 275]

Now move along yourself

Ebay sometimes has individual sprues up for sale when someone stuffs up a kit so you may want to keep and eye on there. Or, have you tried the trading board here?  I hope that helps.

 

Best regards,

Jumping on Paul's reply above.  I bought a 1:32 Revell wing for the He 162 for a future project.  All on eBay.  The canopy is rather simple.  The fwd screen has no external framing whatsoever ever.  Good luck oyoy5!  

 

I see someone in the trader forum already wants your offering.  If that deal falls through......contact me, plz.....thx!

I think the only Squadron canopy for the He 162 was 1/48

[oyoy5 275]

Correct there was not a 1/32 He 162 canopy ever made other than the kit one.

Have you tried contacting John Wilkes? (Tigger Models). ID Models used to make a 1/32 vacform He-162, so John may well have the mould for it and could therefore make a canopy pull for you?

Honestly, I've never done it but I was going to buy this and learn how to vac form a replacement canopy. It would be interesting to learn the technique.
