TheWalkingMan Posted March 12, 2008 Share Posted March 12, 2008 I recall seeing a model shop on the second floor of the mall containing Big C on second road. I have not been in that shop, but I do recall looking in the window and there were some scale models. You should check it out.

I did see a small shop when you enter Villa Market, right across from the resto inside Villa. cheers onzestan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guderian Posted March 13, 2008 Share Posted March 13, 2008 There's a shop on 2nd Road (or it may be Soi Thappraya here) very close to the junction with South Pattaya Road, between that junction and Soi 15. It's opposite where the Baht buses queue to take passengers to Jomtien, outside the school. It has lots of model boats in the windows and is quite a big shop, so they may stock what you are looking for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cali4995 Posted March 17, 2008 Share Posted March 17, 2008 (edited) You know, just as you enter the Villa Market, I've seen an actual shop that carries all varieties of models. It's not a kiosk but an actual windowed store across from the registers. The villa is a pleasant place to visit next time you're in the neighborhood. Onzestan's already listed that one! my oversight.

Palace Posted March 18, 2008 Author Share Posted March 18, 2008 ^checked out the shop near the Villa Market in J Avenue Mall. (ended up stuffing on my grocery and supplies instead) they have scale models, indeed, but very limited designs. will try the other suggestion from Guderian thanks.
