No idea where to put this so here it is

I really would like to get some models of some space craft, mainly voyager 1 and 2. I have had a look on amazon and can see the ones you make up yourself but i don't want to be making them.
Anyone any idea where you can buy them? I suspect they'll cost a fair bit but don't mind too much.

Not seen many Voyager models but I've seen the Hasegawa 1:48 Space Probe Voyager which is available in the UK.

See this:

Trawling through that forum or here:

May find you more.

I had an inflatable Space Shuttle Columbia that blew itself up.

Had a look at the voyager one on amazon, looks pretty cool actually.

the ones on amazon do look alright, however i've never put together any model kits and don't want to spend money and up with something looking like a child has made it.
Thanks for the link cosimo, will keep an eye out on there for ones in the FS thread.

They have some very nice models of other things i'd love to own (ww2 models) and some good nasa ones. Have you ordered from them before? Curious what the cost of shipping to UK works out like.

For the price i'll have a punt on this one i think.

I haven't, they've just been mentioned on a few youtube videos as good places to get models.

they also do custom models, no idea how much that would cost. fire them an email.

Not sure on the quality for that price if this is it:
