Sorry if this has been asked before, but can anyone confirm (or otherwise) that Vallejo acrylics are sold under the Prince August brand name in France? They seem to have the same codes?

I don't know exactly what are the legal parts of the deal but it looks like it's the same paints. The codes are the same, the names are generaly correctly translated. And the paint bootle seems similar.

Thanks for the confirmation guys, great news. Thought I would have to order over the Net, but I can just pop over the border to Metz in France and pick them up from a model shop there.

I confirm, Prince August is the exclusive Vallejo distributor in France.

I can re-re-confirm that the 'Model Colour' are one and the same. However PA don't distribute the 'Game Colour' (the GW colour copies) range in France.

Rumour has it that Rackham picked up the rights to distibute 'Game color' but I have yet to see them.
