Model kits?

GavinMagnus · 21 Apr 2018 at 21:20

Hi Guys,
looking for model kits for friend. I used to do this but my friend is still into it (has about 100 of F-16s alone...) and now he is looking for certain models he could not find. The models are:

F-CK-1 CHING-KUO
IAI LAVI
AMX
MIRAGE 4000
AH-56 CHEYENNE
CSH-2 ROOIVALK

Preferably not pre-painted and 1/72 scale.

Do you guys know where to find these at reasonable prices?
Thanks.

Only place I can think of is www.emodels.co.uk

I've used https://www.hannants.co.uk/ and https://www.modelhobbies.co.uk/shop/ over the years, might be worth a try.

Have you had a look in the local area to see if there are any independent stores that might stock models, even if they don't advertise stock of the specific ones you want? I've found stockists are quite often passionate about models, and if they don't stock it, they can probably order it in or tell you who can. I don't think they're generally in it for the money.

Second vote for emodels.

I usually get mine from model shows i attend over the year.

Thanks for the directions guys, managed to find half of them in these shops. Now to spend some money (the best kind: somebody else's

)

Google it m8?

, I did but there are a lot of search hits that are either non-UK or turn out to be irrelevant and with a full time job, a wife and two toddlers on my plate I thought I'd ask for help.

Thanks again guys.
