Might be worth contacting Comet directly - there is all sorts of stuff
in dark recesses of their shop that doesn't get listed in the catalogue,
so they may have one hanging about somewhere

Try getting hold of the Bandai plastic kits - these are almost exactly
the size you're looking for (and reasonably priced to boot).
You should be able to find them in the US, although HobbyLinkJapan have
a some in stock

the prices work out to be around $6-$10 each if my Yen-Sterling-Dollar
conversion worked. I have a small number that I bought from Comet.
