A13 Cruiser recommendations?

[Oldgamer]

My local club is running a What a Tanker campaign and the desert battles are looming.
I am looking for a few A13's for early desert tanking, can anyone point me in the right direction?
I am aware of S Models but cannot find any in the UK, Frontline seem okay but l need open hatches, Early War Minis seem a little 'flat' in the turret, have l missed anything that is out there?

The Milicast A13 range provides plenty of options for the A13 MkII and hatch options in resin.

They're 1/76 rather than 1/72 if that's an issue for you. In met and again 1/76 SHQ also have an A13.

The Milicast are very nice, size will not matter that much either so l will get a couple, thanks.

Other possibilities:

Skytrex (now 20mmZone) have an A13 Mk I,Mk II and a Mk II CS

Cromwell Models make/made a Mk. III and a Mk. IV

Minimi Miniatures (OOP)

BEF decals for the A13 are made by Dan Taylor

Surely the Skytrex/20mm Zone A13s are now the already mentioned EWM ones

That would be my understanding as well.

And I think the Dan Taylor ones must be his three different conversions for the S Models A13. You need to find and buy the S Model kit as well.

the S-Model A-13 (and many otehr 1/72 kits) are available from an Ebay seller in China called dawngrocerystore - I buy stuff regular off him (new Trumpeter kits, £7.80 each for example) and never have any problems getting them to the UK, usually within 10 days.

The S-Model A-13 Mk.1 set is currently listed at £9.80 + £4 p&p.

I buy from them too. Very good pricing, and posting has never let them down yet. They quote a long lead time for delivery, but it invariably turns up within a week or so....

I too have used that seller without hiccup.

My order has been placed, thank you all.
