Attention: The Mini-Kiwiland Showroom is OPEN on ANZAC DAY from 1pm to 4pm.

A large Revell shipment arrived a week ago. Some of it is listed in this newsletter. Some are on sale for a limited time!

In the previous newsletter I asked for suggestions of interesting Warhammer sets that are not on the website. I have received very useful responses. I will try to list them on the website this coming weekend.

I want to do the same for Warlord Games. Which Warlord Games set would you like to see added to the Mini-Kiwiland Shop website?
I intend to place an order for Warlord Games within two weeks.

A small Faller shipment of HO scale kits for model railway arrived, but more kits are on the way. Sales of HO scale are now increasing again, so that means more stock.

For a list of all new arrivals please click here.

Warhammer 40K sales continue to rise despite poor deliveries in recent months due to a relocation of the distributor Games Workshop in Australia.
Warhammer 40K stock in the Mini-Kiwiland Shop came to a low level because of this, but has recently increased in value by several thousand dollars.
There is still room for more stock, so I would like to hear from customers about sets they would like to see in the showroom that are NOT yet on the website.

Last week I asked for feedback on Eduard accessories such as masks and photo etched parts. Several sets have now been added to the website and are expected in May.

Another week with plenty of new arrivals. For the full list click here.

AK Playmarkers

After the successful release of the AK Real Colors Markers, AK will now release 34 more colors under the 'AK Playmarkers' series. Stock is expected in May. AK Playmarkers

Eduard and Plus Model

In addition to kit sets, Eduard has released thousands of accessories to improve kitsets. Not just for their own models, but also for models from Airfix, Trumpeter etc. Things like masks, 3D printed parts, resin parts and more. I would love to stock some of these things, but I have no idea what would be popular among their many, many products. Let me know if there is anything that interests you:

The same applies to items from Plus Model:

Any feedback is highly appreciated!

There are 3 brands that I want to give a try: Belkits, Battle Systems and Hornby.

Belkits is a Belgian brand that produces 1:24 scale kit sets of rally cars.

Battle Systems is an English brand that mainly deals with all kinds of stuff for wargaming.

I had my eye on Hornby for a while, but now the first stock has finally arrived. More will follow.
