Good luck with that. It takes more than just a few sprues, there's about 3 or 4 bags of metal parts that go with the assembly too.

He has great aftermarket parts, but he needs all the suspension items that axel doesn't carry.

Ditto on the Karen at the AAF idea.
Long as you have the sprue IDentifier (7 digits checkable on the back pages of your manual) and the kit # (Sherman is 56014) you can order anything.
Be aware that the MG sprue is very often backordered, but Karen will not charge you until she has it in her paws.
I'd ordered 4 of the MG sprues a while back, took 6 months, and when i got my package, I got FIVE sprues, not the four I ordered. I almost got my Firefly barrel from her, but bagged one cheaper on eBay ($21.90 shipped to Canada)
She's usually by first option for Tamiya parts, short of eBay.

Try here http://stores.ebay.co.uk/Welsh-Dragon-Models they sell tamiya spares I think they split kits so it all depends on wether they are doing a sherman .
