i need a megaphone horn like is used on vehicle and otherwise public address systems.

i know i could build one but im sure that there are more realistic ones than i could come up with by my own devices.

anyone know a kit that has them (and is more or less currently available) or maybe you got one unused lying around for trade or something?

im thinking they might be in some emergency vehicle kit or maybe as a (possibly unmentioned) extra part in a kit somewhere?

something like this is what i have in mind:

though more like what would be stationary mounted on a vehicle...i could just trim off the handle of this one shown and just use the megaphone part.

many thanks in advance!

thanks for the tip steve, but i dont see anything like that there, under misc or diorama. unfortunately i dont see a search function.

but now i know where to go next time i need a scale machete!!!

any other ideas anyone?

yeah craig that kit does appear to have a suitable part, thanks for the tip!

now heres a kinda strange thing: i really have little use for the rest of this kit.

you want it?

i havent actually seen it yet but my LHS has one reserved for me. that means i might have to take a part or two out of it when i actually examine it, but essentially it will be near-complete but for the PA system horn.

just drop me a pm if you want it. ill even pay to ship it to you.

many thanks again star.

ps: i really dont know if this kit is well done or just generic or what but i think it does say something like "basic build" or something, though its a level 2 kit (revell by the way but i assume it was originally monogram...)

Bill I don't need the kit, I have at least 40 to build plus numerous re-builders. Thanks for the offer though. I remember building this kit as a kid (when it was new). I recall the rear tires were wrinkle walls which turned me off then, but I don't recall what engine is in it.

ok thanks for getting back to me craig; a buddy of mine locally grabbed it when i mentioned i had zero interest in it besides pirating the megaphone so it found a new home with him!
