We have a wide range of models - from aircraft and military vehicles to classic cars and ships - from the known brands of Academy, Airfix, Italeri, Revell, Tamiya and more. These make an excellent holiday pastime for adult and children; a hands-on activity, encouraging creativity, patience and concentration.   The Starter Kits are ideal for beginners, as they come with paints, glue and brushes.  For the more experienced modellers, we've got more detailed kits, which offer a greater challenge.  Building models together can also be a fun family activity, perfect for a relaxed holiday setting.
