If you are after Tamiya stuff, Castle hill hobbies have a great supply of kits and parts, with the proverbial wall of parts available. Hobbyco used to be the King of Tamiya in Sydney, i think Castle Hill have definately de-throned the king.

The chemist and supermarket are pretty good places, but here in Australia we call them condoms.

I just came across this forum and id have to say that Hobbypro in St Marys is a really good shop. There staff are friendly and the do actually no what they are talking about. The can give excellent advise and there prices are cheap. They also have the most spare parts for cars i have ever seen. I'd reccomend them to everyone.

BARCLAYS

I recommend Barclays Radio Control and Hobbies in High St Penrith. Carries a range of products and knowledgeable personnel behind the counter.
