You can buy Green Stuff at some Yellow Submarine stores, from Games Workshop direct (

http://fullmetalplanet.biz/shop/tool/tool.html sells a variety of different products, or you can try Wayland games (the link is at the bottom of every page, and part of the money you spend there is sent back to us to fund this website).
I will look through my bits box and bring the pieces you asked for to the games event on the 28th in Kamimaezu if you can make it down.
Thank you Sir! I will be at the games the 28th.

Cheers! I only need 1 of each so I'll gladly buy from either you or Primarch.

For geek applications I find it really helps with finishing as I mentioned and makes chopping off heads etc a breeze. Plus with the various attachments you usually get, you can get into places you can't with files etc.
You could even use it for one of it's primary uses, that is scoring patterns on hard surfaces, for example glass. I'm not a good enough sculpter/artist to experiment with that aspect but it could easily be done.
I looked at many models when I bought mine, first I thought about getting a battery powered one which was around 2000 yen, but was worried that It wouldn't be powerful enough to cut metal so I got a little bit more pricey one with a cord for about 5000 yen with lots of heads.
I brought it home and tried it on an empty tuna can and it worked great, like Mike said it can be used to score patterns on different surfaces like glass, just make a paper template, put it inside the glass, follow the template and voila. (maybe not that simpe but thats what it says on te back of mine..)
