Imex and Taigen are kind of the same company. They're not exactly the same, but they're very closely associated. Instead of looking for the IMEX website look for taigen tanks. It's two different websites, but it's the same place in Florida.

On a different note, because I have no idea where else to post this, I need advice.

I finally went and did something wrong. I managed to drop one of the eyelets on my Pershing. Circled in red.

Any ideas for a replacement? I'll keep searching, but I don't think the chances are high.

Wait, you need the piece that's missing, right? The piece that goes in the empty slot? I thought you needed the hook/horn part. For the flat triangular piece I'd just make one out of sheet styrene.

Yeah, that's the thing. Styrene work is not my thing. (At least, not yet)

And my local shop only sells the really thin stuff.

Should I layer cutouts of the horn?

Patience is the one thing I seem to always be lacking. Always “out of stock”.

I despise the carpet monster. I figure mines eaten a good portion of small plastic parts over the years.
