Anyone know the website for Wilco Resin Replicas?
I've been looking for a resin case replica of the Modified LeMat revolver that Jayne Cobb uses from the Firefly Television Series. I keep finding tons of sites where people showcase the finished works of the Wilco Resin Kits but can not find the website that they order them from.
Anyone have an idea where I can to to find them?
Failing that, another source where I can order a replica?
@kmcc - Really?!? A magical site that I can punch in "Wilco Resin Replicas" and it will magically give me a site *other* than someone showcasing their assembled and painted replica? Will miracles never cease?
Now that I have all that sarcasm out of my system...
I've looked on Google and on Bing. All I can find when I do a search for Wilco Replica kits is either the aforementioned sites of people going "Wow! Finished assembling and painting my replica", a link to e-bay that comes up as "Your search returned 0 items.", and a couple of companies called "Wilco" that have dealings in raw resin (as in the resin and hardener agents used to make stuff).
None of them are terribly helpful which is why I asked for assistance in finding them or failing that another source where I might be able to get a replica LeMat revolver gimmicked up to resemble Jayne Cobb's gun from Firefly.

I did some digging to find out more about the company, and apparently they (rather he) don't have a website. According to a 2008 post:
"Will still be selling to individuals, through EBay and also through my distributors (the CultTVMan Hobby Shop and C&S Hobbies)."

His eBay contact can be found here:
http://myworld.ebay.com/wilcomodels
Contacting the company is probably your best bet, the replica seems unavailable anywhere else.
EDIT:
If you are willing to try retouching a model yourself, a simple LeMat replica might do it for you, too.
