So the curse of the mirage iii strikes again. This is about the 5th 3c I've attempted to build and for various reasons not been able to finish them.

This time it's the dishonesty of the ebayer that sold this to me. He's "borrowed " parts. some weapons, which I'm not bothered about but two critical nose gear parts are also gone.

I'll try to scratch them but this probably heading for the bin as well 😡😡

There are several facebook groups that facilitate spare/surplus parts. Might be worthwhile to give it a go.

Mirages look best wheels-up anyway 😉

Just remembered: isn't the Hobby Boss Mirage reboxed by Eduard? Eduard's spare parts service is excellent! Parts G13 and G17 from Eduard 8101 looks like the ones you need.
