Si B’s 1/35 Takom blitz Pz III Ausf M
i got it through Amazon, other online department stores are available, back in 2015. I had a check to see if they still had them but alas out of stock... I had a quick google for it elsewhere but drew a blank. It cost £95 back then but its well made and will outlive me twice over.- Si Benson
