Tom's Modellwerke
I saw Tom Harrison a couple of weeks ago at his new digs in Santa Rosa. He is definately NOT closed. But he has moved and is reorganizing. His web site still exists, but I know he's tweaking it. Looks like a server problem at the moment.
He IS out of producing WWI kits at the moment. He's totally into producing etched-metal frets, mostly for ships, and he still has many WWI accessories available, including a brilliant 1/32 Mercedes.
When he found out I was building the Cramer 1/48 Halberstadt, he said, "Are you one of the suckers who bought that too? I thought I was the only one! Worst vacform kit ever produced!" and then he gifted me with his copy. Thanks Tom!

BUZZ
Thanks I was wooried for a moment? I found his email and he responded. I didn't know his server is having problems but thats good to know.
I asked him about his planned Detail PE/RESIN set for the HobbyCraft 1/32 Camels. He said it was staled with its designer but that after he took care of some other pressing matters he planned to take it over and finish it himself.
Yeah !!!!!

An almost complete redraw glitch. Good news though is that the parts held up accurately. Just manhours now.

Have you tried Aeroclub?

They stock Tom's Modelworks but not sure if they have the 1/32 Mercedes - try calling them?
