Really looking and not finding it anywhere (so far), as a last ditch I am interested if anybody has seen where one could get a Russian T-35 model 1:43 ?

1:43? What uses that scale? I doubt you will find anything because usually wargames are using 1:72 or 1:100.
Especially T-35 exists only as model kit to assemble for 1:25, 1:35, 1:48, 1:72

It might not be for a wargame. And there are 1:43 scale models, although not as common as 1:35 and 1:72. Even Eaglemoss do a line in that scale, and they sell in newsagents.

My stepdad is a long time military modeller, I'll ask him if he knows of anyone doing the T-35 in that scale. You may not get a Russian configuration, but a bit of scratchbuilding will fix the differences.

1:43 scale only exist on diecasts for cars, not tanks. Hence thought it might be for a wargame, because modelling scale is unheard of.

1:48 is the closed to that, and there are models of russian T-35 to assemble (between 12-15 kits if remember correctly), as wrote above.
