I believe Prince August still has some of what you are looking for.

The Hurricane Walkers are going for stupid high prices lately.  P.A. is probably your best bet.  New style BB's the same way, though not quite as bad.   

It looks like, after nearly a decade out of business, the old Target stock is FINALLY getting low...

Yeah, I'm in the same Walker boat.  The bad thing is that there isn't any good way to proxy them.  They are unique enough that you'd really have to kitbash a WWII Hurricane model, add in mech legs from some source and WZ guns from what few spares you may have laying around.  Not easy...possible, but not easy.

You could try posting on Bartertown and The Miniatures Page.  Longshot, but stranger things have panned out for me.

GL!

Was surfing about and found this....
http://www.westwindproductions.co.uk/catalog/product_info.php?cPath=126_128&products_id=1066

with a little converting could be made pretty darn close. Its even got the "British " feel.

Wow - I need to auction off a couple of Hurricanes to pay for my kid's college.....LOL

Seriously, I have 8 of them. I think that's overkill.
