well, to add to the list, there is a newly opened hobby shop in Jurong east IMM. its a branch of the hobby shop in Tiong Bahru Plaza. There's another 1 at Grandlink near Paya Lebar MRT station specialized in cars and bikes. for further details of the location of the shops, you may email me at bibendumz@yahoo.com.

seems to me that the prices of car kits are quite standard in singapore......costing ard 28.90 for a normal tamiya kit and 30++ for better kits from tamiya,fujimi,revell....etc

For discounts, wait till the major retail outlet has Sales, like Isetan etc. normally, its 20% off, though don't expect an awesome range......
For wheels..looks like you will have to mail-order for Fujimi and Aoshima. Perhaps the Singapore builders can combine together for a group buy... Derek |

Forhod:
There is a shop at Grandlink Square, Paya Lebar selling rims and also the aoshima 3 piece wing set. But it cos rather expensive, i guy at the shop told me the price for the rims are between S$10.90 to S$18.90 if i remembered correctly, and the 3 piece spoiler set i think is around S$20. I just went down last week and they are having a 20% discounts on quite a number of models. |
