did tamiya discontinue this color?

[giordano]

bought it early this year and went yesterday to buy another one. they said they don't have it in stock, but not sure if it was discontinued. same with other hobbyshops that i've been to, said not sure. and it wasn't included in the '02 tamiya cat., so is it a new color for '02 or it was from last year. nwayz the color is called brilliant orange (MS something) forgot the #. so any idea? thanx

Giordano,
Tamiya have not discontinued the color, actually they have just added it to their standard spray color range.
The color you are looking for is TS-56 Brilliant Orange, which I believe matches the Repsol orange.
Tamiya has also added Raybrig Blue to their color range, TS-57, which was also previously a limited color.
The reason it is not in the '02 catologue is because it was only recently released.
Hope this helps.
