If anyone could organise permission, I have a number of unbuilt Hooton models on my Shelf of Doom that could be used as masters. But it would take a large range of skills to reproduce them - they contain various types of material including waterslide decals, pre-painted vacform parts, profile-etched brass and rubber tyres.
