Looking for floats for a light transport model.  I am willing to pay Postage and Shipping downunder.

How light?

There's a Matchbox Norseman on aussie e-bay ending in 4 hours.
Its the Glen Miller boxing but the floats are still included AFAIK.

There are also 4 Revell Twin Otters.  As with the Norseman they have floats and wheels but only show the wheeled option on the lid.

- Can't be bothered to do the proper research and get it right.

Another ill conceived, lazily thought out, crudely executed and badly painted piece of half arsed what-if modelling muppetry from zenrat industries.

Brian,

I have a full set of Revelbox Twin Otter floats and struts if you want.
Let me know, and are you still at Providence Drive.

Cats are not real. 
They are just physical manifestations of collisions between enigma & conundrum particles.

Any aircraft can be improved by giving it a SHARKMOUTH!

Mmm, I think I have a set of my own.  Let me check and get back to you.  OK?

If I'm not building models, I'm out riding my dirtbike

Kit's Rule 1 ) Any aircraft can be improved by fitting longer wings, and/or a longer fuselage
Kit's Rule 2) The backstory can always be changed to suit the model

...and I'm not a closeted 'Take That' fan, I'm a REAL fan! :)

Regards

Check out this website Brian, they have all sorts there;

Ah, yes, I'd forgotten that website.  Yes, loads of interesting stuff there.  They don't give dimensions though.   :banghead:

OK, I have been deep into my stash and found a Twin Otter and the other kit I was also looking for (plus a good dozen others).  So, my search for floats is at an end.  I thank'ee one and all for your help.   :thumbsup:
