Product quality stands out as a significant strength, with many expressing satisfaction over the wide range of items available and noting that products consistently meet their expectations. The online store's selection of unique miniatures and themed merchandise, particularly in desired colors or styles, has been highlighted as a key attraction. Customers frequently mention the fast delivery service, often receiving their orders within the promised timeframes, which adds to their positive shopping experience.
I am half satisfied. I did receive my order even though it took time. However, who decided to stick a label on the Tamiya paint pots? Great, now we have a color hat and no longer the label with the reference. Just because the color is visible doesn't mean it's not a specific reference that doesn't dilute like another.... Really, I find this completely useless. It ruins my shopping experience!

Hello,
Thank you for taking the time to report this issue, which has been a long-standing problem with our Tamiya paint supplier. For years, we have been asking them to reposition the labels so that the paint number is visible, allowing you to easily distinguish between two shades of gray or white. Unfortunately, they insist that this label is mandatory and complies with CE standards to be sold in France.
We fully understand the difficulties caused by this labeling arrangement, and we are sincerely sorry.
Best regards,
1001hobbies

Package was flimsy and not up to the task, one of the bottles of paint had damage to the cap, thankfully it did not spill or the whole contents of the order would have been destroyed. I had to be transferred to another bottle immediately. Also, the whole order was about 10 days later than first notified.

Good morning Sir, at the time of the order placed on 11/12/2024 at 17:47, you ordered four products, one of which had a longer delivery time. To avoid delaying the entire order, we decided to split it into two shipments. The first part, containing the immediately available products, was delivered on 24/02/2025, according to the courier's tracking information. The following two products - Greek Cavalry figures SPECIAL IMPORT OF LONG DISCONTINUED FIGURES ORIGINALLY MADE BY ATLANTIC - were delivered on 11/03/2025. The courier also sent us proof of delivery confirming receipt of the package on that date. We apologize for the inconvenience and remain at your disposal for any further information.

Long delivery with only one parcel out of the 2 ordered. What's more, the cardboard box was damaged, as was the box containing my product. By way of compensation, I only received a €5 discount code, which means I have to place another order with you in order to benefit from it! This is not at all commercial in my eyes...

Good morning, We sincerely regret this incident and apologize for the inconvenience caused. When placing your order, you selected 6 products, 3 of which had a long delivery time and needed to be ordered from our supplier in England. Due to these ordering times, your order remained blocked until it was 100% complete. To accommodate you, we unlocked the order and shipped the 4 available products. At your request, 2 undelivered products were refunded. Additionally, as soon as you informed us that the received product was not suitable for you, we immediately organized its return and proceeded with your refund as soon as possible.

Ordered a Gunpla model. They have quite a few in the store but a lot of them are actually in backorder meaning you've no idea when you'll get them. Keep in mind that this store is based in France so shipping to the Netherlands was quite a bit more expensive. Otherwise the actual delivery was fine. My item took three workdays to arrive.
All and all not really a remarkable experience. I'd only recommend them for Gunpla kits that aren't available anywhere else and that they have in actual stock.

I placed an order at the end of October for 3 gunpla, one available immediately, another had just been announced as being back in stock, and the last one was on pre-order, with an estimated delivery date of November. 2 weeks later, just after the withdrawal period, the deadlines were changed, nothing was in stock, everything was postponed to December and January. I'm told to be patient, that one of the models is a very popular product and that if I cancel I lose out, and that in any case, no refund is possible because the right of withdrawal is obsolete. I have to be patient, it's a Christmas present, almost 300€ that I couldn't offer. In mid-December, the deadlines were extended again to the end of January and the end of March. I contact the company at the end of January to ask them to send me a separate shipment, which I would pay for if necessary, as soon as each model is available (I remind you that 2 of them were available in October 2024), as there has been no change in the delivery dates, but they tell me that no, they won't be available. I have no communication on my order tracking, I go on the site, the delivery dates are now for the end of July 2025. As a contractor myself with orders for equipment and supplies abroad, I still wonder about the seriousness of this company and their online stock management, in addition to significant price differences when 2 identical products are sold in their shop with sometimes 15€ difference for the same product, and an evasive customer service that wants to show you that you are not in your rights.
In the meantime, I've been robbed of 300€, a disappointed relative who doesn't understand my apology for his Christmas present and thinks I'm blatantly lying to him so as not to give him anything, and a lot of stress caused by this situation. I'm beginning to think I'll never see the color of these gunpla.

Please note that pre-order release dates are subject to change without notice by the manufacturer.
