Hi 27L,
in Wings World 3/97 i found following Answer from Herpa for a Kid that would order an Model only for him with his Name on it:

"Sorry, but we only produce models on request if you order 1.000 models or more. And it costs us between USD 550 to 1.100 to just produce a pattern, plus the usual production cost."

I think that's much expensive to you.
Another Idea was you buy an normal Model and go with this and an good Picture of your wanted Model to an Airbrushpainter and ask him if he can realize it.
I've seen here in Germany many Carmodels that are produced so.

Stevie
