I have run into this a couple times with Tamiya, the first was popular military colors were OOS for a while.
Recently it's the X20A thinner in the larger bottles that I had been unable to find available on line anywhere for a couple of months now. Walked into my local hobby shop a couple weeks ago and they had 4 large bottles so I bought them all.
My advice when it comes to Tamiya products now is don't buy just one, stock up. Because you never know what might be in short supply next time. Good luck finding your panel liner.
