looking for scale model shops in Belgium

killerwhale65 · Post by **killerwhale65** » 30 Nov 2004, 13:35

hi all,

is anyone aware of shops in BE where they have a lot of airplane scale models? Looking for Revell in particular, but also push-and-pit models.

PS: I am aware of the online shops abroad, so i dont need those.

thanks!

There's one in Brussels. It's on Rue de Lombard and it's called Classic Aviation or something similar. They have loads of models.

Dear Killer Whale 65,

Hello. There are two great shops here in INDIA of MODEL ART INDIA. One in Mumbai and the other in Bangalore.
About Model Art. They even have a website. www.modelartindia.com They sell aircraft memorabilia at great prices. They ship worldwide.

Some other name i can remember is of www.autoartmodels.com and the other one which is a quick solution is TAILWINDS from www.maisto.com

Well there is Verschooten at the Eiermarkt in antwerp. It has some Herpa models but really is specialised in revell kits etc.

There's also a small shop in the wijnegem shopping center, but this is really small...

Hi,

I know there is one in Namur/Namen but I don't know the name of the store or the exact adress.
If you are prepared to ride some distance you can go to Schiphol. The "Luchtvaart hobby shop" just near a runway. They got everything!!
It's already worth to see the store!

greets

Baillien in Borgerhout ( Antwerp ) Turnhoutsebaan.
About 25 minutes walk from Central Station.
I bought all my model kits there, they also have decals of Sabena and City Bird and VEX.

there's a shop in the center of Brussels (When you come out of central station, go down the kunstberg and through the shopping street in direction of anspach center). No revell kits I think but they do sell some herpa models and they even have some (resin?) models... Saw a sabena caravelle there and some other nice stuff...

this is their website: http://www.tammodel.be

did you mean their website is not easy to find? or the shop?

what do you mean with "R/C models"?

Comet · Post by **Comet** » 02 Dec 2004, 19:21

R/C="radio controlled". Or that is what it is in English.

No, it's not Comet, the shop i'm talking about is on the grasmarkt I think...

for Revell kits and things like that you could try a shop very close to my home...
The shop is called "Albatros" and is located on the Leuvensesteenweg in Muizen, very close to the Planckendael zoo... They used to have lots of ac revell kits and other brands, also rc models...

perhaps you are thinking of TAM modelisme/modelbouw
they have a large shop in Grimbergen and another one in Wierde near Namur, on the N4 road. they are quite good but to my impression their main aim is R/C models. they have a website but is not easy to find...

Tam Thats a very good shop, i've buy my R/c planes there
Verry good service

I know there is a big shop in the city center of Hasselt(Koning Albertstraat) where you can find a lot of scale models. The shop is called Broux.
