I'm looking for a couple of colors and would like to know a good source for them...anywhere. Checked Lucky Model already and although they stock some, I couldn't find the ones I'm looking for.
Any feedback will be appreciated.

over-seas sources are pretty much your only option anymore - Gunze does not meet US importing standards for labeling, so are no longer allowed in the states via wholesale importing.

Rob, as well as what has been mentioned above, IIRC,the Aqueous colours above about H-100 or so have been discontinued to reduce duplication between the Aqueous and Mr Color lines.

Rob,
I was at this shop in AUG and he still had some Gunze Aqueous in a rack. He may have the colors you need.

Thanks very much for the feedback, guys! I checked Hobbyeasy but no joy on the colors I need (FS36320 and 36118). It's too bad they've discontinued these colors as I was just starting to really like this range.
I did find these colors through BNA Model World in Australia but it was going to cost me about $20 for the two jars. Just can't justify the expense for two small jars. Oh well, I guess I can try to mix Tamiya and see what I get.
Thanks again for the input.

P.S. I'll see if I can give John a call, Jeff. Hope he has what I need.
