Online Hobby Stores

This thread is for the purpose of maintaining a database of online hobby stores that the users of this forum have ordered items from. Any description of the store is appreciated, so that people will have some idea as to where to look.


To start it off:

Hobby Link Japan is based, to my knowledge, in Japan. They carry a very wide range of items, including all the Tamiya detailing items such as masking tape, compound, wax and sandpaper. Their prices are also very good. Shipping estimates are given, but actual shipping prices vary upon receipt.

Model Express has a website for both orders intended for the US and orders intended for Canada. Reasonable prices, but the inventory is sporadic and quite limited.




Please, add on. I know very little of these myself. Descriptions (as above) are very helpful, especially if they deal with wait times for your parcels, or unexpected charges, etc.

Perhaps this this could be pinned, or the section of the FAQ devoted to this subject could be expanded to include some of this new information.

I'm not trying to be arrogant, I'm just looking for extra information beyond what is in the formidable FAQ.

I've found the absolute best to be Rainbow Ten and MediaMix Hobby.

Service is lightning fast and they list exactly what is in stock, so you know you won't be waiting months for it. Good to deal with too - especially Wong from MediaMix, a member of this forum.

Yeah, MediaMix is very good, my second order should be arriving soon. They just need to restock the Renasance Ford Focus transkit with the correct hood.
