Great Models Webstore lists 43 different colors, with a few on sale. Don't know how much they have in stock... Other places I've looked say the line is discontinued. And at least one place said that Vallejo makes (made?) The Color of Eagles paints.

Here's a link to Great Models home page:

http://www.greatmodels.com/

I found the paint by clicking on Manufacturer (left-hand side, near the top), then scrolled down to Paints Acrylics, then clicked on search -- then you should get The Color of Eagles near the bottom of the right-hand column; clicking there will take you to the pages with what Great Models lists.

I've ordered from Great Models before, with good results. One note -- if something is out of stock, they'll put it on backorder for you unless you specify otherwise. I usually ask them to ship what they have and cancel the order for the out of stock items.
