Hi team,
I've had these two for several years but sadly the canopies/windscreens have gone walkabout. Photos from Scalemates:

Would anyone happen to have spares they'd be happy to part with?

I'm in New Zealand so I expect postage won't be cheap.  I'm really strapped for cash so can't afford vacs but would gladly help with postage.

Many thanks in advance!

Can't help re canopies but if you still have no luck, you may wish to remove the cockpit altogether and turn them into unmanned versions/missiles.
All hail the God of Frustration!!!

Except I have very specific real-world subjects in mind so the canopies are a must, I'm afraid!
