Just to clarify, the Ozmods 1/350 HMAS Vampire is modelled after her early 1970's modernisation and after removal of the Limbo morter around 1980.
It's a very nice model.the actual Vampire is a museum ship at the Australian National Maritime Museum in Sydney and well worth seeing if you get there.
They also have a 1/700 version of Vampire the same configuration as the 1/350 kit and a 1/700 of sister HMAS Vendetta including the Limbo morter. Again these are very good
Showcase Models did a very nice 1917 350th HMS/HMAS Vendetta which could be easily converted into the 1917 HMAS Vampire.
If memory serves me correctly Showcase also did a Colins Submarine in 1/350. I believe they were based out of a model shop in Australia but unfortunately the owner and man behind the operation died. He has however left a fine legacy with this kit.
Whilst Ozmods seem to have them in stock I'm not sure that they are producing them so don't hang around of you want one. Also be careful what you order as Ozmods are selling their own Resin 1959 HMAS Vampire based on the RN Daring Class. A very different ship.
