Mr Fog, As stated above MA1, MB5 etc. are just the manual codes for assembly. Those are not the part numbers. Tamiya Screws will also have a 5, 7 or 8 digit part number next to each screw you require. From your list, 3x14mm step, will probably be part number 50592. 3x10mm Tapping will probably be part number 50577 I have almost all Tamiya screws in stock, or in my own huge stocks. Let me know the part numbers and I can sort them out for you. Antony

As one of the largest ebay seller, I now, do not send to Brazil, South Africa or Russia, unless it's with a tracked postal service. Will send to every other country using standard airmail, without any problem. I have had problems with Italy over the years, but they seem to be better recently. Antony -
To answer a few question from above. I have an excellent working relationship with the Hobby Co and Tamiya. ANY part Tamiya Japan have in stock or plan to manufacture, can be ordered by me. Most model/hobby shops can't be bothered to order parts as they don't have the technical knowledge or any idea where to find the correct part/part number to actually order the parts from their importer. There are massive changes afoot with the way Tamiya Products are to be sold. From the middle of this year, all people who retail Tamiya items, must purchase them from their counties Official Importer (Ebay/Amazon sellers, model shops etc.) Anyone found grey importing to re-sell will find themselves in court. Tamiya Japan have also instructed all their Far East distributors, that they can not deal with any of the re-sellers. Further more, no seller, can sell Tamiya products into a country, when they state they are based in that country and they actually are based in another (Two have already be shut down). Form the UK's point of view, the Hobby Co, have last year reduced all there kit prices and from the middle of this, their top selling 300 parts. To answer ChrisRx718's points. I have a complete list of all Tamiya Parts currently available from Japan. There is less of a difference now, between UK prices and the Far East. By the time you take in to account, UK Import Duty, VAT and Customs Clearance charges, you are not really any cheaper. Now, I know, you'll say, but I'll take the risk and see if it gets through! This is fine if you are only buying from abroad a couple of times a year. Once you start to buy items more than once a mouth, the Customs computers will log your address and any further items will be pulled aside and checked, then you get the charges. Antony

Dear all, We are now in a position, to special order, any currently available part from Tamiya Japan.
