Iron Shipwright made a Prinz Eugen in 1/350. Their website says they still have some in stock. The kit looks to be a mix of injected plastic, resin, and PE. At 325 clams it is a bit much for me but this might be the best you'll find.

You could try these guys (in the UK):

They're very good, they got me the Alanger Akula over from Russia (took a while but they did it). I always order stuff from there unless buying it in person from Manchester. You can phone them and get them to order stuff in incidentally.
