Aoshima parts question

[geronimo77]

I just like to ask that is it possible to order Aoshima parts separately like Tamiya.
In which shop can I order Aoshima parts?
Thanks for the infos

probally through the company, but i never did it before. Check the box to see if they have a phone # or way of contating the company itself.

You can order Aoshima part trees through Hobby World (as they are a division of Aoshima). Be warned, availability is not good, so unless the kit you need parts for is fairly new, chances are they won't have it. I tried awhile back for some older, but not OOP VIP kits. No luck.

I have tried to order parts tree from Hobbyworld, however they would not order replacement for people outside japan. For replacement parts, if you buy the kits from hobbyworld and due to lost/broken, you can order parts from them. But if not purchase the kits from them, hobbyworld cannot help.

so malsheem, even though hobbyworld is the division of aoshima, they still could not help much.

hlj or rainbow ten is the only resource.

as much as this is thread necromancy, i'm having the same problem now and since iirc hlj's parts ordering service is on indefinite hold and saw that aoshima closed their online store (http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct=j...oCQ6fw8LcuAG6w), is there any other way to get replacement parts from aoshima?

i cracked the one-piece glass canopy for the 1/24 mitsubishi pajero and unfortunately, it was on the windshield area.

TIA.
