LF 1/72 F-14 canopy

As the tin says, looking for an F-14 canopy.  Doesn't matter what kit it's from.  I am quite willing to pay for P&P downunder.

Me too Brian, in a mystery box I bought a couple of years ago after the LMS owner died, was an almost complete 1/72 F-14, as far as I can tell only the windshield part of the canopy is missing ----

I need mine for a conversion.  I've been rather surprised to discover there are no commercial vacuform F-14 canopies out there.   Hence my appeal here.   :(

Hannants has a steep minimum order for overseas and the Evilbay auction is finished.  However, I will take note and set up an automatic search on Evilbay.  Thanks.

Thanks Ap',

I know what Brian means too, GBP30 minimum order.  But now I know I can get one I'll wait until I have something else to order (and something to buy the order too  ;D )
