Too many orders accepted for items declared to be in stock and yet awaiting restocking. Results three weeks before delivery. Disappointing.
Translated reviews
Response from 1001hobbies
We apologize for this disappointing situation. It can happen that an item in stock is quickly sold out due to high demand, resulting in a delay in restocking. We are working to improve our stock management to avoid such inconveniences in the future. Thank you for your patience and understanding.

Order placed in July 2024 for 2 items, only 1 received in October and the other to be received later... The item received is of good quality but as I have not yet received the second I cannot give a good mark: my account has been debited for several months!

Hello, parcel well received, however the box is damaged and too large, the model boxes are not held correctly, so packaging problem. Fortunately, the model boxes did not suffer. On the other hand, the tiger caterpillar elements are detached from the bunches and fall directly into the box, so once again a packaging problem. A little disappointed all the same for my first order with you.

The games I ordered arrived damaged because the packaging was too fragile and there was little protection inside. It's a shame, because customer service is pretty understanding, so I wouldn't recommend ordering from them.

Initially my order was not taken into account even though I was charged for it... On the other hand, the customer service was great, the lady on the phone was patient and helped me through my problem... As for my delivery, I still haven't received it, but it's from the delivery person, so there's nothing to say except maybe I should have a wider choice of delivery people...

The delivery arrived incomplete ( one figurine out of six is missing - it should be available at the end of October... ) and there is a real lack of communication with the customer. A simple e-mail or SMS to inform of a delay would solve everything, rather than being presented with a fait accompli.
