There isn't a great deal to choose between the different consumables, most brands do a fairly similar selection of things, there are only a handful of things that are unique to a certain brand.
Personally I have been using Much-More oils and greases for quite a while.
A quick tip on shock oil - stick to the same brand (same will go for diff oil). Not every brand measures the weights in the same way.
I'm surprised to hear that the Tamiya threadlock is no longer available in the UK! But I use a threadlock from a motor factors and it is fine. Just make sure you get a non-permanent one (usually blue), and apply sparingly so as not to bond the screws to any adjoining parts by mistake.
