          There's this model shop run by a Jap guy at the basement of Paradiz Centre. Price is good, and sometimes you can find gems there. Guy is very friendly and sells interesting products (Used to get a soft green putty he call wasabi putty, very good to use)

                Millenia Walk... Ground floor. Near the cafe restaurant. Main attraction is the "1:18 scale of UH-1 Huey" (21st Century Toy)

                      Not a specialised shop.. but places like Kiddy Palace does sell quite a large range of plastic models and Tamiya paints.
                      huh

                        Hi dude ! ....agree totally with you on this one ....especially since eperrot requested for Aircraft 1/32 scale

                        But beware thru ! .....you'll find yourself bankrupt after you see the range of 1/32 scale models they have !

                        Just the Trumpeter range, they have a SU-27, MIG-29M, Corsair A4, Thunderchief, A-10, several WW2 navy bombers and fighters, German ME-262, and lots of others Aircraft types !
                        Seriously running out of ...Storage space !

                              I always find older collectable model from Morgan Hobbies in Katong shopping center. It just about the oldest hobby shop in Singapore, Has a lot of parallel impoeted stuff, as such its much cheaper. Its worth the trouble to go there since it is a little out of the way. Ask For Jennifer. Great collection of classic kits if you are into those sort of things.

                              The ochard store at specialist center is also very complete especially for paints and accessories.

                              For info, central hobby is no more at centrepoint. The branch at airforce museum is still there though. Ask for SS.

                              Cheers, the 1/32 f-18D from academy is a gem that every plastic modeller should have 2, price very reasonably with excellent fit and details.
