1:18 AN-APS-6 Radar Pod for F6F Hellcat

I saw on Shapeways and here that a member made a radar pod. Does this radar pod exist still?

Yes, the radar pod still exists. I have a couple left; send me a PM, if you're interested: $20 shipped (to USA).

Here's the original thread. The pod was designed to fit the BBI Hellcat and does a pretty good job of that.

There was some interest in whether the pod would fit the Corsair (either BBI or 21st Century): it doesn't fit those very well; there are some photos in the thread.
Was it for this my life I sought? Maybe so, and maybe not...
