I am trying to find a certain release from Royal Model - #585 Radiators

Anyone have a clue to where I can find this item here in the States?

Thanks!
-Felix

p.s. I tried to order directly from their web site, but each time I put a quantity in, the a window popped up in Italian text and canceled out the order? I can't read Italian either...

sorry to say NO ONE does... they are so expensive for the dealers, that no one carry's Royal. You could try Great models they might have something in stock...Or the Barrell store in Canada, they half about 70% stock....good luck....

Hi Felix,
I've been looking for the same item myself with no success here in the states. The only place at all I found who had it in stock was "Hobbylink Japan" [www.hlj,com]
Good Luck, Let me know if you find some place here in the states

I've never ordered from Hobby Link Japan. Is it secure and legit to order from there to here? (the States)

I'm glad I took a chance way back in the day when you sent the credit card number in 2 successive emails..
yes they are quite reliable and secure.
Now that the exchange rate is back in the toilet, I don't order as much as I used to, but there are good deals to be had. Trumpeter T62's for US$13 last week, on sale.

order with confidence.

I was able to buy directly from their web site. difficult but do able. The quality is excellent but the product ( oil barrels ) were all damaged. I asked them to resend another set and he did free of charge. He also packed them better to prevent the damage. I also found the same stuff on Ebay,

best of luck
