Hello, This may seem like a strange question but where can I order Tamiya Acrylics from here in the US? I usually go to a hobby shop about 30 miles away from me but the corona virus has done it's damage and they are not open. I looked on eBay and Squadron Shop but they don't have them. I'm looking for the basic WWII German colors....Red Brown, Dark Yellow and Olive Green. I don't want to
have to search the entire web to find them. Maybe some of you have an idea where I can order from a supplier here.
Tamiya America is sold out of almost all paint.

Thanks.

'Scale Hobbyist.' I did a site search and found everything you're looking for. HTH

[edit] Oops, I just noticed you've already found what you needed. ... Still, worth a mention.

Happy modeling!🍺

I've ordered from Scalehobbist and Sprue Brothers but I also get good deals from eBay and there are several US based sellers.

Another one of my "go to" sites for paints. They also carry a few of the more elusive brands.

Otherwise Sprue Bros is my #1, Hobbyworld USA, and on occasion Squadron.
