Does anyone know where I can get hold of a kit of a Soviet T-35 tank (the "land battleship") in 1/35 scale?

They rarely seem to appear on eBay, and on the two occasions they did, the first time I was outbid and the second time I missed the end of the auction. The last time it was a kit by the ICM company, but as far as I can tell it's no longer made. Or at least it doesn't seem to be available from my usual sources.

Any tips greatly appreciated - thanks!

Found one for you

This company (Guinea Hobbies) are actually very good for this kind of thing:

Hope this is helpful - albeit a touch pricey!

The Alanger T-35 is the ICM one reborn.

Thanks guys for those two very quick replies. Always good to find out about new outlets.

David, when you say "reborn" do you mean "improved upon" or just "reboxed and rebranded"?

Same mould, new box, as far as I know.

Frankly if you can wait I'd stalk eBay. Got mine for $23 total.
