Spare parts question

Post by foxbat »

How do I order spare parts for Micronauts? A friend just got married and had to part with his unpainted lead, and I got some Micronauts, but they are not complete...

BTW, can someone identify this one for me? I suspect it' an Exeter class CA, but confirmation would be nice. :)

Thanks in advance

To order spare parts from GHQ I have contacted them and told them the exact part / sprue that I need and the kit it comes from and they quoted me a price for the items and I placed the order with them. It is pretty simple and fairly inexpensive.

Your model hull is not the CA Exeter kit, I compared the picture with an unbuilt Exeter kit I have. It looks like there is an aircraft catapult amidships, it that true? Also, your hull has 2 after main turret barbettes and probably 2 forward barbettes. I will check my "fleet" for a match and reply soon.....I enjoy riddles, this should be fun.

I believe your hull is part of the Italian CA bolzano (RMN15) kit based on the turret placement, especially the secondary mounts hanging over the sides and the midship catapult. For the parts you will need, you will need the forward and after superstructure and the sprue that holds the main 8" turrets and the floatplane.

Thank you for the brain teaser to start my day!

Does anyone have any extra wheels/landing gear for the V-22 Osprey by GHQ.

I am also looking for Stryker Gun System - the extra gun barrel and also the turret for the MGS Stryker. Also looking for Mortar from the Stryker mortars.

Let me know if perhaps I may be able to trade.

Thank you, Chris
Chris
