Hi, my dad would be off to Taiwan, Taipei. I wonder if there's any hobby shops around that area. He'll be off this Wed so I may need quick replies. Thanks!

Ralph,

The place to visit is MPK Hobby World. To find their address go to their website (http://www.ebusiness.com.tw/cgi-bin/mpk/shopping.pl) and click on blue "SHOP" button on top of the page. There are detailed directions how to get to their shop, even a map is included. Just one problem... it is in Chinese...

When you get there, be sure to stock up with Hobby Fan and AFV Club stuff. It is ridiculously cheap there!

Thanks a lot! A single shop is better than nothing at all
