Each one can be found on eBay for right at $60 with free shipping… not horrible for such big models

So I'm looking for canopy masks for this one and there's nothing out there. Does anyone know if the Eduard masks for the A-4E/F will work for it?

Possibly for the windscreen, but the M was supposed to have a bigger improved visibility canopy hood.
