I was my LHS today and they had close to a dozen cans of Tamiya red oxide primer. Quite possibly the last ones in the country as Tamiya spray cans got banned by Health Canada last year. 

There was a similar quantity of Mr Surfacer in red oxide too. 

I wish there was a way to ship them to you, if have picked some up.

I bought some of the Mr color red oxide . so I'm set for now, Thanks

I picked up some kits that I'd ordered from my LHS. 

First up is the modified N-1 from The Mandalorian. It's 1/48 unlike most of Bandai's Star Wars kits.

Next up was a Fiat Abarth. I've wanted one for a bit and when they had it on sale during Boxing Day, I added it to my pick up pile.

Finally while there, there were several kits on clearance and one was the recent Tamiya M36.

Oh and one more thing. It seems Tamiya X20A thinner has been recalled by Health Canada for not being labeled correctly and not having a child proof cap. So grab it while you can as they don't know how long it'll be before it's available again.

Great stuff Carl😀  I've been interested in that big Fiat myself .

Paul, I'm hoping it's not too bad a kit. I know on the  base Fiat 500 they've done some updates to the kit so that it either goes together easier or fits better. We'll see when I get to it I suppose.

If I am not mistaken our very own Doc. @DocRob built one Abarth just recently and it looked fabulous..... not sure if the kit was the same though , or conversion?

You got squirreled up somehow Martin :D. I own the same Italeri kit, but haven´t build it. I also own a 1/24 Tamiya Fiat 500 kit, which will be converted into a mad hillclimber, but that is also a future project.

Cheers Rob

I finally got my order from Joycraft Models. After it got sent out, it went on a bit of a tour thanks to a mis-routing. Then throw in the snowstorm and it took a bit longer than expected to arrive

What's inside the box? Thankfully not Gwyneth Paltrow's head...

Joycraft is the company that has announced the 1/32 Tutor Snowbirds kit coming out later this year. So I think this bodes well for that kit.
