    • my gosh the new forum is quite poor.

       

      some old info i have. the places may not be there anymore. the opening hours may be incorrect. but still... hope it helps. AND the instructions to get there weren't written by me. DUN shoot me if they are incorrect.

       

      AA Collection Ltd.

      G/F 170 Gloucester Road

      Wan Chai, Hong Kong

      I think it's about the same distance between the Wan Chai and Causeway Bay subway stations. It's near the Immigration Tower. (near the waterfront expressway)

       

       

      Model Car Expo.

      37A, Waterloo Road, Mongkok, HK.

      they carried lots of diecast! You can take the underground train and alight at Yau Ma Tei Station or Mongkok Station but you have to walk around 10-15 minutes to reach there.

       

       

      Shop UG 13, CC Wu Building,

      302-308, Henessy Road, HK.

      Also there's one near Wan Chai in Hong Kong Island named New Ace (HK) Limited. The store is small but packed with lots of lots of diecast especially 1/43. I bought my dealer edition S-Klasse and M6 there. You can take the underground train and alight at either Wan Chai Station (took you about 10-15 minutes to reach there) or errr... I can't remember the station name this one but it locates in front of Times Square.

       

       

      HONG KONG MODEL CARS ASSOCIATION

    • oh. i did go to AUTOart at gloucester. walked a long while to find it. its not terribly big. perhaps as big as the nikko at millenia walk. the prices are not terribly cheap. in fact they are the same. and the range of models u can find there is largely the same.

       

      and i believe i saw model car expo while shopping. but it was closed. not sure if it was closed for good, it relocated, or it was simply just clearing stock. cos it wasnt terribly late at night. and.... the shop seems empty. and im talking about the models on the shelves. not the pple. or maybe im just hallucinating and it wasnt model car expo at all.

    • This new sgforums is quite gay, dont really like it too. Maybe thinking of making our own forum..

      Anyway, alot of ppl has the misconception that models will be cheap in HK coz AA is a HK company.. icon_lol.gif
