I have a big favor to ask. I bought a Trumpeter FAUN SLT-56 a year and a half ago. It was missing two entire sprues. I have exhausted every method of trying to obtain the missing parts with no luck. Does anyone have this kit that they have messed up and may not need the sprues? I believe it was two of the C1 or C2 sprues.

Anyone...Bueller....Bueller!!!

Nimitz,
Have you tried this. If not, hope this helps you out.

I have tried Trumpeter directly. They do not fill out parts requests. I tried to get assisatnce from Stevens International, but I bought the kit off ebay from Hong Kong. I was very up front with them saying that I would purchase the parts. They were no help. The seller in Hong Kong no longer returns my e-mail request. All I can say is God help you if you have a problem with a Trumpeter kit.

Sorry, I tried to help you out. I cant htink of anything else to do. Wait, the only other sugestion I have is wait for a model show, and maybe you can either get rid of it or mayebe get another one at a good price.

Okay, I did not think of that option. I would rather resolve the problem than pass it on to someone else.

This may not be the way you may want to fix the problem, but I have one about 95% built and the cat decited to run and skid across the table it was sitting on. I you like I can work with you and take the kit off your hands
