It fell on the floor, I thought I'd pick it up in a minute or two, and then you guessed it............. I forgot and stood on the bloody thing! Doe!
Any ideas of the easiest way to get another rather than buying a new kit?

now is your time to practice using vac-u-form canopies.
try squadron mail order. fast and cheap:

Oop! just noticed you were in the EU, so maybe not so fast. There are probably distributors there for those vacuform canopies, but if not, squadron can take care of you.

I had the same luck with Revell. I bought an "open" kit a a LHS for cheap, and it was missing the seat and control stick. A quick email and less than a week later I had the whole sprue those pieces were on!
