I'm off to Paris soon can someone give me any info on good model outlets, close to the City Centre.

Hi Cookie,

Here are three that Olivier Carneau (Bison126) provided me when I asked a similar question earlier this year.

"Blast Models : 5, rue Crozatier (near Reuilly Diderot underground station) open hours Monday to Saturday
10 to 13hrs / 14 to 19hrs

Azimut Productions : 113 rue de Turenne (near Republique underground station) open hours unknown

Another one I've never seen but with a good reputation

Euromaquette : 88, rue de Charenton (near stations Gare de Lyon or Ledru Rollin) open hours Tuesday to Saturday 10 to 19hrs."

I went to all three and each are very good shops.

Hope this helps.

Scott

Thanks Scott

As I’m on a romantic weekend away with my wife it might be difficult getting to all three outlets. I could try and claim that at least one of these shops is a famous Paris Landmark.

Dear Cookie
You can do Blast Model and Euro Maquette in one shot they are close 10 min walking

Hi,

It depends from what you are looking for ?
Blast is specialized in 1/35 figures and tank and PE.
Euromaquette have a really really nice collection of 1/35 dioramas, and the guys at the desk are cool (unlike Blast)
If you're looking for a more generalist modelshop, try Eol, 3 rue du louvres, Louvre station : boats, planes, figures etc... but their prices are higher !
Don't hesitate to ask me supplemental questions !!

Best and happy trip in Paris

Julien

Thanks Guys

I think this will keep me busy, I also need time to see the sights of Paris .
