I think Messerschmitt did a 1/1 version several years ago. Seems it was kinda a flop. I imagine they're pretty hard to find these days.

Someone in germany did build a 1:1 flying(glider) replica and it does handle very civil for such a small design, Lippisch knew how to design shapes that could fly including later the F-86 Sabre jet.
Iirc, the replica is red like the original paint on Späte's Komet before he had it repainted.
