Who distributes Guillows in UK?

[buglecall]

Finding the new laser cut 400 series in the UK is next to impossible for me at least.Only the Spitfire sen so far.
I can not find out the distributor in the UK to ask them in person,anyone know?

you can get them on Ebay. I've bought Guillows kits from Hobbycraft if you have one of those nearby.

Where are you?

I am in London,Hobbycraft is nere me but they do not have any of the large Laser cut models.Nowhere does,only the Spit seen so far in als hobbies but i have that and want want of the others which i can not find.
Ebay is not a option for me,by the time you pay shipping it works out dearer,some kits even cost more than shops before shipping.

Sams in the UK sell Guillows, but you'll soon but up against the postage issue again....

Hi Buglecall

I had a look in my local hobby craft for you today in Harlow as they had the spitfire when I was last in there (Die cut though). The Hainault store of Als hobbies is relatively near me so I thought if they had any I could have picked one up for you and got it to you easy enough.

They had the P51 mustang in there but on further inspection it was also die cut.

I think from my first visit to Als two weeks ago if they didn't have the laser cut models no one will as they had a great stock in there. Maybe they could order you one in though?

Sorry I couldn't find you one.

Hi Mark

That's great thank you I'll bear that in mind for future orders.

Tom...alternatively, try Amazon.co.uk ..... On left side of Search, key in eg Toys & Hobbies and right side, type in Guillows. Seems mostly from 3rd party sellers and I don't know if models shown are regular die cut or some the newer laser cut. Can't hurt to ask though. I order many dvds from UK I cannot get in states or are cheaper there.(In USA, one needs an all region or region free player to play PAL Region 2. We have NTSC Region 1 or zero will also work) but returns can be a hassle. But, they're another on-line place in UK to check, which also shows some hobby shops within that site. Might be helpful; also for UK folk, there is some free shipping involved. Read fine print.

Hi Ray

Yeah I was looking on Amazon and saw that third party sellers are selling Guillows models on there. I get a bit stingy on the postage sometimes but if they have the kit you want then it is well worth it!

For now I'm happy with the die cut as I don't know any better but I'm really looking forward to the laser cut kits.

once you go laser cut there is no going back. the die cuts just wont cut it. no pun intended.

Ha I liked that one! I'll have to source one of those kits!
