I dunno if I'm the first one on this, but here goes....great news for US modelers!

Surprise!! The Neo for Iwata - a Taiwan-manufactured double-action gravity feed airbrush.
Picked one up today @ Hobby Lobby for $39US with my 40% discount.



Retail price is stickered at $60 on my copy, and I haven't yet determined if that is an error in itself.
They're only at H-L for the time being, so grab your coupons and make a run!!

I had one of these a few years ago.  Was marketed under the "Coleman" name then and sold in our "Canadian Tire" stores.  They were suddenly removed from the shelves.

A pretty good little airbrush for the money.  And I never really worried about wrecking it like I do with an Iwata.  I would have bought more of these.

Be sure to get extra needles if they're available for it (I don't know if Iwata needles are truly compatible).

Styrene in my blood and an impressive void in my cranium.

I have read some reports about this NEO airbrush from a few airbrush artists and they don't care very much for it, sure its a very good price for an airbrush but its not very durable and from what I read is ''junk'' compared to a real Iwata.
I don't own one of these NEO airbrushes so I can't really say for sure what its like but I do listen to people who make their living using an airbrush, they know what they are talking about and give out some very good advice.
