Corgi AA33704 Sardinia He-111 tail wheel

A few weeks ago I jarred my edge of my desk top with 5 of my Corgi He-111's on top. Best my right hip hurting like hell for a few days, the tail wheel of the AA33704 Sardinia (green and tan camouflage) snapped-off right at the base . Does anyone have one or know where I can get one from? It is such a small piece and with that sky-blue it would be tough to repaint correctly I think. Thanks mates!
Mike

Mike, you can try Corgi UK, but with all the crap going on, you might not have much luck. It would probably be worth sending them an email anyways just to see if they can help.
Your only other option would be to find someone that has a crashed He-111 and see if they can get the tailwheel off.

Thanks Harry. Maybe one of our members here might have one or even a extra one to trade or whatever. I have a crashed Corgi Stuka or two that I recovered the good parts from to be used as a trade even.

IIRC, the tailwheel is static on the He-111 and is always down, but I might be wrong.

I ment to say the tail wheel in the "down position". Maybe one of the folks that likes their gear "up" will be willing to part with theirs. Help out a brother in need since his 50th birthday is less than 7 weeks away.
