If you check the sticky threads April is the last month for new releases in the current production year and there aren't any Pumas listed, sorry.

GHQ sells a Cougar but I don't know of anyone with a Puma. I did a quick check of CinC and Raiden/I-94 and didn't see any listed there. I don't usually buy from other vendors than that so I don't know if you'll find one. I sure others here are more knowledgeable than myself.

thomas,

I remember reading that when the Cougar first came out. According to Ferret701's website H&R makes one (edit: a Puma) in 1/300 scale.

Its a terrible casting tho, no where near the quality of GHQ's Cougar

Still, a bad casting of the right helicopter may be better than a perfect casting of the wrong helicopter. And the H&R one on the website isn't completely horrible.

I've just painted a couple of H+R Pumas and they're pretty good castings. I didn't even have to do any filing on them. Very pleased.

I have some of both, just a couple of Super Frelons and a dozen or so of the Tigers, I will try to get a pic in the next few days.

I have the H&R Tiger UHT. Its a reasonably modern casting, and not too bad. Can't remember if it is on my site or not.
