SonyKen Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) All, I don't know how many of you knew this because I just found out about it tonight. Tower Hobbies is still stocking or never stopped stocking or whatever the larger bottles of Tamiya paint in the 23ml or 3/4 ounce bottles. I personally use buckets of the stuff and I am glad I found out that I can still order the larger bottles from Tower Hobbies. Each of them priced at $3.40 is about what I am paying in the hobby shops for the smaller bottles. This is going out to the guys like me who did not know. Cheers!

Joel_W Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 Ken, Depending on the color, I use both sizes. My LHS, Bayshore Hobbies located in Suffolk county NY stocks a full range of both sizes. I've also bought both size bottles from Sprue Brothers online. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
toadwbg Posted August 6, 2013 Share Posted August 6, 2013 I get them from SpruBros. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
SonyKen Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 Joel and Toad, I typically don't do business with Sprue Brothers unless it is something that I can't get from any other source such as Darren Roberts Steel Beach products. But thanks for the information. Best Regards, Ken Bailey (SonyKen) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Will Benton Posted October 7, 2013 Share Posted October 7, 2013 Sprue Brothers and they are local! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nerdling Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 (edited) I usually get mine from http://www.scalehobbyist.com/ They sell them for right around $2.39 each. Shipping tends to take about a week or so. But their prices more than make up for it. Edited October 8, 2013 by nerdling Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Flying Pancake Posted October 8, 2013 Share Posted October 8, 2013 Huh. In Japan I've never seen Tamiya in the really large bottles except for the polycarbon paints. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JesniF-16 Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 Hi Ken. Hope you are doing well. I second the scalehobbyist store... Best prices available and they have been very reliable. /Jesse Quote Link to post Share on other sites
phantom Posted October 9, 2013 Share Posted October 9, 2013 I just would like to see Tamiya fill more then half the bottle. The jar I opened today was HALF full on the first opening. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
