Talking Tamiya Models Japan: The New R35 in stock in the US.

Ok here are some places that I have found the car if this will help any of you US guys like me.

Squadron: [High price] http://www.squadron.com/ItemDetails.asp?item=TM24300

TowerHobbies: [Mid High Price] http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXUZV5&P=0
I can get the car at a lower price if I use my customer code. 30.00 low
These are the only to that I have got'in E-mail on yet as I here there are othere Hobby shops in the US that have the car. I just thought I would post this to help any US buys out.

I may have to bite the bullet and get it because I want to eventually do the Scale Motorsport full-carbon version which would also require the p/e set.

MSRP of $66 won't help any US customers! (LOL) And that doesn't even include the PE, which is almost necessary to have descent details, like drilled brake discs.
So, I think some kind of coupon (like 40% off at Michaels or Hobby Lobby) is a must for the US buyers.
I paid $36 (shipped from Tokyo to Houston), and I still don't think the kit is worth that much money, compared to Fujimi counterpart.

If you want the Tamiya and want to buy from a US source, try Strada Sports. It's $52.99 delivered.

He should have the Fujimi GTR's next week. The Fujimi kit is more "Tamiya" than the new Tamiya kit while being significantly less expensive.

Cool; I'll go with Fujimi's and make the SMS decals fit somehow.

I got mine for $34 shipped from HobbyEasy (China) to Fort Worth. It actually too only 3 days! Good kit, but like others said it is not worth the sticker price.
