You could turn yourself into 'old timey modeler guy' and fabricate your own from sheet plastic with a couple of laminations of thin sheet on either side of a thicker central piece and a dab or two of filler and some Nowegian Steam on the far end of a sheet of 360 grit and a sanding stick in a couple of relaxing hours some evening, for around a buck in parts. :wink:

1-800-dial a model? What's wrong with a bit of invested relaxing time so you can say 'I made that'?
It's not like you're sculpting something terribly complex.
