anybody has an update on shops in metro manila? i was thinking its about time to do an update of the list of stores since most have closed down, moved or something..

i know these are still open...

hobbies and comics
makati cinema square

hobby square
harrison plaza

lil's futaba
both park square and megamall


aside fromt he shops mentioned above, i havent seen or heard from any other shops.. mainly because i dont go around that much...

just feel free to add to the list and maybe merge this with the old thread...

thanks!

Hello! And sorry for not checking this area often.

Some I like to add:

STC @ Festival Mall, Muntinlupa
Hobbitoi @ Alabang Town Center, Alabang

I don't know about up north since I rarely go there. Accurate Model Works in SM Southmall had closed already.

ah talaga? san ka nakakita? mga magkano yun?

gumagawa kasi ako ng diorama eh.. medyo modern yung subject kaya medyo nahirapan ako maghanap ng kits.. puro WWII kasi yung kits kadalasan eh..

pwede bang malaman kung saang store ka nakakita ng fujimi na kit ng AH-6J Lilttle Bird? thanks!

maganda yang tanong ni arkuo. matagal ko na ring iniisip bakit parang biglang naging ghost town d2. hindi na rin ako madalas sumilip kasi wala namang tao at bihirang may sumagot sa mga tanong. sayang kasi mas okay sana magtanong sa mga pinoy din.

by the way, your latest builds were great shonen!

Actually yung iba dito ay nasa iisang IPMS group (IPMS-BAC) at eto yung website:
www.ipmsphilippines.com May sariling forum na rin kasi doon kaya nagmigrate na halos lahat. Try nyo magregister din doon

Depende yan dre. Sa www.hannants.co.uk sila nag-oorder ng kits. Check mo muna prices doon sa site na yun at yun na yung estimated price. May onting patong ofcourse

Great service. Mabilis dumating yung pinaorder. By batch lang sila naorder kaya kung nahuli ka, antay ka pa nung next batch. AFAIK, sa May 15 ata sila oorder, kaya puntahan mo na! I got my resin 2-3 weeks after the placement of order

wow. medyo rare nga yata yan a. ganda. parang gusto ko rin bumili, hehehe...mukhang inulit-ulit mo rin ang black hawk down a. "nightstalkers" na chopper pa talaga ang naka-depict sa box art. probably will be a handsome build...

the only AH-6 kits i've seen are from academy. but i don't think those are in 1/35 scale. mas common kasi sa aircraft ang 1/48. sa lil's megamall ko nakita yun.

oo nga.. gumagawa ako ng dio ng blackhawk down.. somalia '93.. yang kit nalang kulang ko eh.. meron nakong 5 humvees at 32 figs para sa project.. medyo may kalakihan kaya medyo matagal.. hassle yung pagpintura ng camo sa figs.. isa isa.. tiyagaan lang talaga.. anyway, kung may nakita kayong nagbebenta ng kit na yan sa pinas, ipaalam mo nalang sakin dito.. salamat rovik!
