The_Ghan Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Yeah, but they have no stock of anything !!! I just searched for Kato, Tomix, MicroAce trains ... nothing except a handful of pre-orders. No Tomix track. If I'm doing something wrong in the search window please let me know ... but there seems to be very little on offer. Even Kato only brought up a few buildings, some people, etc. Cheers The_Ghan Link to comment
IST Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 I have just checked the shop: there are only 2 items from Kato which are in stock, very few books from Ikaros Publishing, but lots of Tomytec buildings and Bandai trains are available. I would prefer Kato train sets right now, so I think I miss this action, but thanks for the info! Link to comment
cteno4 Posted November 24, 2011 Author Share Posted November 24, 2011 Hobby Link doesnt stock many trains and no track, mainly tomytec buildings and pro hobby figures. also some books. nice thing is the things they do have are usually 20% off! lots of models, figures and other hobby stuff as well. its not hobbysearch, but its a quality shop with very good service and keeping a good discount on when hs has been reducing theirs. jeff Link to comment
clem24 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 This is HLJ.. They aren't known for stocking any trains at all. Tomytec and Sankei make up the bulk of their train related stuff. Books and catalogs would be best able to take advantage of this offer. Link to comment
Guest Closed Account 1 Posted November 24, 2011 Share Posted November 24, 2011 Skid Weeks at BTtrains.com They are filling up containers from Japan rather fast. Get your order in soon. Shipping is better than importing from overseas. Link to comment
cteno4 Posted November 26, 2011 Author Share Posted November 26, 2011 Too bad they don't have these in stock! http://www.hlj.com/product/WOD35246 http://www.hlj.com/product/GNZVG001 The shipping on these is killer! Jeff Link to comment
Martijn Meerts Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 Good thing they're not in stock, I don't have time for even more projects =) Link to comment
cteno4 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 i was thinking of you martijn when i was looking at those woody joe kits. a nice detailed wooden castle would sit perfectly with the steam engine and wooden boat models! besides you need to juggle more than two, really two is not juggling! cheers jeff Link to comment
Martijn Meerts Posted November 28, 2011 Share Posted November 28, 2011 I still have a PG Gundam to build, and many HG Gundams, 2 MG Gundams, a 1:350 Yamato with etched detail parts, 1:350 Musashi, 1:350 Yukikaze, 1:150 Nippon Maru .. And of course my layout =) Link to comment
cteno4 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 you need to retire! jeff Link to comment
linkey Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 I still have a PG Gundam to build, and many HG Gundams, 2 MG Gundams, a 1:350 Yamato with etched detail parts, 1:350 Musashi, 1:350 Yukikaze, 1:150 Nippon Maru .. And of course my layout =) Puts my hand up in shame, I too have got Gundams from HLJ that I haven't built yet and still got some on order. Some kits I am not allowed to start building until the 1st December due to being in a group build comp. Link to comment
Martijn Meerts Posted November 29, 2011 Share Posted November 29, 2011 Jeff, not for another 34 years or so I'm afraid :) Linkey, I've been sorely tempted getting more PG's since they've been re-releasing a few popular models recently, but I really need to just finish what I've got first, or at least part of it. I'm a bit apprehensive starting my PG before some more practice on the HG's though, especially considering I want to paint the whole thing, and do some shadowing here and there as well :) Link to comment
