Anybody got a good source for P.E. sets? I'm interested in getting the Tom's Modelworks set for the Tamiya 1/700 Indianapolis and so far the only place I've found it is direct from Tom's.

Great Models has 164 items listed for Tom's Modelworks. Choose the button for Manufacfurer and in the drop down menu click on ship accessorties to find the listing for Tom's.

Thanks Al. I recently switched from dial up to DSL and lost a lot of my favorites. This also helps me get Great Models back onto my favorites list. Figures it would be on the second to last page of the list though.

I had recently purchased the a/m from Tom's and find that it is really a got set.

You can try the following website that I patronised often. They had a range of PE products from different manufacturer and are in the state. Think you be able to get it pretty fast.

Try. http://www.floatingdrydock.com, and
http://www.pacificfront.com

White Ensign Models do a good range of etched sets. I've bought from them a few times and their service is very fast and efficient.

Thanks to all. I've used these posted links to help recreate my favorites list. Now if I just had some money to buy anything.
