I'm trying to find a Me110 in a scale larger than 1/72, with no luck. I've checked 5 or 6 online shops, plus my local shop, and found none. Anybody know where to find one?

Revell makes a nice 1/48 scale Bf-110 and in a couple of different versions. I bought two versions at my local Hobby shop has both and I think it even has a 1/32 scale Bf-110..
The 2 versions I have are Kit #85-5935 Bf-110 G-4, and #85-5839 Bf-110G-2.. :-)

If you're looking for an earlier version, eg C/D for BoB, then the old 1/48 Fujimi kit is the only game in town. I have come across another from a company called Astrokit, but from what I've heard it is the Fujimi kit, reboxed with new decals. Check this old thread for more info, https://armorama.kitmaker.net/forums/15128&page=1

I recently built the Fujimi kit. It's addequate, but not great. The panel lines are recessed, at least, and there were no horrendous fit issues that I recall. Lots of minor fit/alignment issues (panel lines that crossed part seams, such as the radial lines along the tail boom, rarely lined up at the joint). Complete lack of detail for the wheel wells, very basic cockpit interior. Although I just threw mine together, it's really best used as a basis for substantial aftermarket/scratchbuilt stuff. greatmodels.com has some.
Revell/Monogram also has a 1/48 (and 1/32) 110G nightfighters series that drifts in and out of production. I bought one of these in 1/32 off ebay last year.

Revell and Pro Modeller build 110s. I have both, I did the Revell one, but not the PM one yet.
I think that Revell made a 1/32 scale one a long time ago.
Did you try squadron.com
and greatmodels.com

I think RM / Promodeler actually built 3 differnts 110's. The 110, the 110 night fighter and the 100 wespen? Dont know which varients they were. I know the wespen was a monogram model and the nightfighter was promodeler.. I am right? all 1/48

Thanks guys, Yes I've tried Squadron, Military hobbies, I have the Revell bf110g bumblebee on order from great models, they don't have it in stock though. I seen the Fujimi kit, wasn't sure if it would be worth the money. That might be the one I have to get though. Thanks for all the help. #:-)

I did the bumble bee one (wespen). Watch out those decals (bee itself) are a nightmare to get flat and correct
