I'm kind of curious to know where the other folks here get their supplies and the brands what they prefer. I'm not talking about paints and brushes, though that can be discussed, but where things like ratchet joints, ball joints, additional items like that are bought, and which ones. I've gotten some good results with Hobby Base Yellow Sub items from www.hlj.com, but I'm sure someone can recommend something else.

Good topic...
This one will be popular!!!
I wish I could contribute. I usually just use eBay or salvage from other figures.

You're right, that is nice. I've been looking for a cheaper source of joints, it's one of the reasons I haven't done a project using outside joints since I gave an MSIA Psycho Gundam neck and ankle articulation...2 years ago? I'm going to bookmark that site, it's greatly appreciated. Thank you.

It was one big set for about 8 bucks and I'm thinking "how did I missed this?"
