Anyone know of a good hobby shop....wooden boats, models, plastic models etc central Bkk

[Kenny202]

Anyone point me in the right direction? After models you assemble yourself, wooden ships / boats, plastic airfix type models etc. Any help appreciate

Check this website: www.toystudiobkk.com I have never been to either location myself, so no guarantees what you will find.

Ask bangkok personal shopper ?

There used to be a shop on the 2nd or 3rd floor of the old Central on Silom. Not sure if he's returned now that they have a new building.

Might check out Chatuchuk weekend market.

Tamiya shop in RCA: 21/23 Block B Soi Soonvichai,Rama IX Road Bangkapi,

(Visited in 2011, 2 storey as I remember, with full range of Tamiya products. Still active according to Info on net)

Toy department in Central Pattaya has nice selection of kits and materials, maybe same is true of Central in BK?

I did a search a few weeks ago for plastic self assembly kits (Airfix style) for my step son's birthday and i could't find much at all except pre-assembled models of planes and cars etc, I did find a range of japanese cartoon/fantasy style modls to assemble in Toys 'n us in Rama 4 but very expensive for what they were and i was looking for the same type of models i used to assemble when i was a kid so to impart some mechanical/engineering/creativity that seems to often absence in todays kids. The best part is the assembly and the painting and if pre-assembled then what is the point.

Lego and meccanoo are still available there too but may not be what you want.

If i had been better organised i should have bought off-shore and bought them in for him.
