I'm sure Squiffy can help out here but, yes, you have to pay for them.
I used to get Tamiya and Aifix religeously many years ago but I haven't bothered for a while now.
The last time I looked they were about a fiver each, which is why I gave up buying them! | |

| A signs of the times with colour printing costs so expensive,the older colour catalogues given as customer support are now a thing of the past.
As Richard says they cost money these days,that money is best spent on the kits themselves.
Even retailers have a problem getting trade catalogues,they are not given out freely.

I think mail order is the best option nowadays with these things but the original costs plus postage makes them a bit on the expensive side.
I am lucky as Halifax still boasts a model shop! | |
