Hi everyone!

I'm into WW1 aircraft and I'm looking for a good (cheap) place to buy 1/72 & 1/48 kits.

Can anyone recommend a shop/site?

Best wishes.

Well thanks for the warm welcome!

Thanks Phil for the link.

I've just purchased some Roden kits from http://www.cjhobbies.co.uk . I found them on Froogle by searching for Roden Fokker. They do free delivery on all kits!

They have a nice Gotha that I might try when I have some more cash!

Thanks

Models For Sale is a great online shop too - good variety and great service. Loads of special offers and a loyalty discount if you carry on using them.

Thanks everyone!

The place I've just bought some from works out cheaper, so I'll see what the service is like!

Thanks for the links!

no



I think that has to rate as our shortest and most honest answer ever! :-) :-)

Welcome aboard Chris

I usually end up at Hannants or Comet Miniatures - they have a good selection of all makes. Modelzone sell Roden etc., but still haven't picked up on Eduard yet...

All the best
