Where can I get a nicely moulded FG42?

Hi everybody.

I'm planning to build a diorama including Dragon's Fallschirmjager figures and would like to replace the FG42 machine guns because they need a lot of cleaning and are not good looking.

I've looked for Tamiya and the only FJ kit they have seems to be even older and crapier.

Anybody can point me a good way the get nice looking FG42 in 1/35?

Thanx in advance.

Hi Phil,

I think the DML fallschirmjagers figure contain FG42. It's probably the best on the market right now as far as detail goes.

Edit: I just checked... the older DML fally set have them not the Gen2 yet. Not to bad, better than Tamiya's dated version.
