Not 100% sure if it went OOP but I see Squadron still has it available.

My local hobby shop also has a few stocked as well.

Hobby Link Japan (www.hlj.com) is almost certain to have one. Good prices and great customer service as well.

That's the first place I checked and I have it on back order there.

Squadron shipping is too much for me -I'm in Ireland. I'm not in any huge hurry to get it I just find it odd that such a hugely popular kit might be out of production. Mind you it's probably because it's so popular that I can't get my hands on it.
