Hi.

Do you know of a reliable retailer in Australia who stocks or can get CMK products? I'm after some resin wheels for Tamiya's LRDG. I can order from CMKeShop if I have to.

Cheers
Shane

Thanks for that Thomo. I did check out Firestorm's website but didn't see any Tank Workshop items listed. I'll drop an email to them and confirm. I've seen the TWS items on other sites and, from the limited images available, the CMK ones seem a little better. Of the online stores CMKeShop was the only one that showed them as being in stock.

Cheers

I was in Brisbane for the Model Expo/Show last year and Firestorm were present. I too am after the LRDG set and asked one of the chaps about availabilty - he said ask and we will get. Hopefully that is still the case.

I've shot the email off and asked about both. I'll let you know when I hear something if only to finish this thread off. I managed to pick a kit with the Eduard PE set a couple of weeks ago. I didn't want potential problems down the track with the vynil tires.

I had a reply from David that Firestorm. He doesn't sell Tank Workshop and doesn't see the wheels on cmk's website. I've seen 'em on cmkestore so I'll prolly order a set.

Cheers
