Just click on any of the above web sites to contact the manufacturer. Resin companies are usually small, in-house operations that really need your support. Each purchase you make from them helps to insure the continued existance of our hobby.
As many of you may know, resin manufacturer's are often the only source to find those rare, hard-to-find, one-of-a-kind kits. This is the reason why so many kits are short-run and often not repeated after a certain number or specified time period.
Here is an example of the Blohm & Voss P.212.03 in 1/72. This kit was originally produced by Airmodel Products, Czech Master Resin Kits (CMK) as the P.212 inital prototype version in resin format. Later the P.212.03 was released by MPM Ltd. Models in a 1/72 plastic, resin, metal etched format and most recently by ARBA Products in a 1/72 metal format prior to the resin 1/48 model.
The BV P.212 was a late-war design for a tailess, single-seat fighter that remained a paper project with the end of the war. Years later the design did prove airworthy in wind-tunnel and scale-test models. The Blohm & Voss BV P.215 was an enlarged 3-seat night fighter/bomber version of the same design with two engines.

We can contact virtually all the major resin manufacturers, dealers, even individual collectors to help in your quest. Search fees will be reasonable with discounts for members. We can even arrange shipping, at cost, from this site.
Below is the A+V Models Yakovlev Yak-19 in a 1/72 resin format with metal details and vacuform canopy. Typical of A+V Models kits, the parts are well formed, fit together tightly and need very minimal filling, filing and sanding. All of the cockpit detail is there and decals are well formulated, strong and easily applied.
The Yak-19 was a continuation of the straight-wing, straight tail-plane design of the Yak-15 and Yak-17. The Soviet Union was just beginning to discover the advantages of the swept-wing format which would come in the Yak-25, Lavochkin La-160, Sukhoi Su-13 and famous MiG-15.
