Took me 2 minutes to find a model shop in Kuala Lumpur!!!
Hi to you all from Hot and Humid Malaysia!!!
Staying in the most superb Hotel, just over the road from a Tamiya stockist! You know me! They have just about every kit I have ever wanted in my collection, but space is too much of a premium, so I have had to turn down buying any! Plus, they are the same price as in the UK, i.e. expensive!!! They do have every Tamiya tool and filler available though, so I treated myself to some true epoxy putty, the type I have never seen before!!! On the real car front, this is the home to 'Proton', and don't I know it! Can't move for them! If you are a 'rude boy' here, you drive a Proton GTI with jap spec exhaust and big rims!!!  They drive on the same as the UK too! I can't start modelling until I arrive in Melbourne on Wednesday, until then I plan to keep in touch! Enjoy the modellin guys, be online with you again soon! Regards, a holidaying Dan G!

Guys, I am now in Australia!
Spent the last day in Malaysia model sjopping, and contrary to what I said, I couldn't help but buy a kit! I went for the Mazda 787B LeMans car from 1991! I took some great pics! They had a 1/12 scale McLaren F1 road car! A bargain at £336!!! Also a 1/12 Merc CLK GTR in D2 colours. This was £300! The model shop in the Petronas Tower shopping complex had pretty much EVERY Tamiya kit you can get! How cool is that! Unfortunately I left my USB cable for the camera at the Hotel in Malaysia, so you will have to wait a few days until I find another one, or I buy a smartcard reader! Also, Melbourne ROCKS for cars! SO far I have seen... Ferrari 360 Spider Ferrari 360 Modena Ferrari 355s Lamborghini Diablo Roadster Numerous Skyline R33 GTRs Lancer EVOs of all descriptions!

well, hi Dan!
Having a good time, aren't you? Which kit did you buy? And when are you planning to get back to the beloved Europe?

I am here for 4 weeks, so ages yet!
My cousin bought me a kit today too, and all the paints! I just don't know how I will ever get it all back in the suitcase! She bought me this...  And this is the kit I bought in Malaysia!
