  1. After a number of delays due to the weather at UK Port resulting in ships stacking waiting to be off loaded, our container is due into Tiger Hobbies in the morning.

     

    If you have already purchased the Rye Field Panther in the UK it has not been imported by Tiger Hobbies, and Tiger Hobbies will not support your product, any missing parts must be reported to where you have purchased the model.

  2. RYE FIELD RM5016 PANTHER WITH INTERIOR ARRIVALS

     

    The above model will arrive at Tiger Hobbies on or about the 15th of March (7 days delay due to the Boats stacked up at port WEATHER).

     

    We did not have a lot of interest in this model, so we are importing what we think is a reasonable amount for the market (300).

     

    In the last two weeks the stock as almost been allocated, so please make sure you have this model on pre-order with one of our retailers. 

     

    We have about 18 model left for pre-order on our retail site.

     

    This model will come again but it will be May or June before we re-stock.

  4. ZOUKEI MURA 1/35 MANGA TANKS TO BE IMPORTED BY TIGER HOBBIES

     

    We have had a number of retail customers asking for the Zoukei Mura 1/35 Manga Tanks.

     

    On our next import into the UK late Apr 2018 or very early May 2018 we will import a limited number of the models in the links below.

  5. New Tool 1/72 Revell PT109 arrives in Stock

     

    https://www.tigerhobbies.co.uk/REVELL-RV05147-1:72-Patrol-Torpedo-Boat-PT-109-Captained-by-John-F-Kennedy?search=rv05147

     

    PT-109 is immortalized as the boat commanded by John F Kennedy. PTs were powered by three twelve-cylinder Packard engines, and equipped with four torpedo tubes, machine guns, and an anti-aircraft gun. Without ceremony or christening, she was lowered into Newark Bay in July, 1942; two months later her baptism under fire took place in the Guadalcanal war area.

  6. ZOUKEI MURA SWS12 1/32 DO335 A12 Two Seater

     

    Tiger Hobbies will import in late Apr 2018 the DO335 A12 version, this was released sometime ago but it did not fit in with our logistic system coming out of the Land of the Rising Sun.

     

    But this will be imported along with the new USAF 1/48 F4D.

     

    Pre-order price is £159.99 including UK delivery.

  7. I would like to know just how much was shelled out on the Disney Star Wars Licence, I bet a good few bob, to a point it would be like a anvil tied round one's man-vegetables by thin wire.   I made my feeling clear about the ex FM tooling been sold for RRP £119.99, seven inch long and not that much plastic, got to be the worst value model ever issued, no matter how so called good it is.   You can get a Zoukei Mura Kit with over 1000 parts for not much more wonga, or even a Revell 1/32 HU219 for RRP £59.99.

  8. Also arrived this week are the F Toy 1/72 Pre-painted Zero Models.

     

    These are a sealed model but we have taken a selection of boxes and opened them to ident which model is in the box (these are normally sealed in a lucky dip way of selling)

     

    These have been re-sealed and you can buy the exact model.  Please do not be put off by the word Toy these are very detailed models just with pre-painted parts.

     

    https://www.tigerhobbies.co.uk/index.php?route=product/search&search=F TOY ZERO

     

    RRP £13.95 each plus £2.00 UK shipping, but two or more Zero Models and its is free shipping in the UK

  9. With on line games like world of Tanks and various Film and games with Nazi Zombies these IMHO are linked with ScFi, the general Modelcollect Blue Print Panzers are selling as good as the standard Russian actual models, so some one is buying them.

    And while someone is buying them someone will make them.  Next Year if the Movie Panzer 88 is made this will drive sale of this stuff even higher, also Sky progs Nazi Mega structures are also fueling interest in all thing Nazi Maddness. 

     

    Not my cup of tea either, but as a business man and importer of plastic kits only a complete fool would turn the business down.

  11. Hi  All the AFV 1/72 are under this section

     

    https://www.tigerhobbies.co.uk/model-kits/model-kits-military-1-48-and-other-scales

     

    What we are selling you is the Magazine with a free model, at some time in the future these will be issued as IBG Kits but will be a little more expensive as there are Vat implications when off the Magazine

     

    You also need to check this sections and look for First to Fight
