    Twinner is a very old model shop in Hong Kong, it located there more than 40yrs sonceI was a boy! About Continental Models Shop, you can find lot of limited edition military model kits there, they’re the most wonderful model shop in Hong Kong. So happy to watch this video introducing those model shops in HK. Welcome to Hong Kong! ❤👍

    If i had a hobby shop like these near me, i guarantee i'd be their every few days getting 1 or 2 kits. Sadly down here in Philly we don't have hobby shops that fits my needs. I mainly like building tanks or ships.

    I've been a frequent visitor to HK and have lived there from 1996-1997 one year span. Interestingly, I have been to all of the model shops you have featured in this video. As for public transportation, The MTR is convenient but I prefer taking the bus as it also run frequent and you don't have walk the stations.

    There's more model shops in that small region of Hong Kong, than in the entirety of the UK. Online has killed the UK store. Its why high streets are dieing out.

    I was there at that exact Tamiya Plamodel store last year and it was like DIsneyland to me. Bought many parts and hop ups that were hard to find. The RC Mart shop which is not far from there was a total disappoinment though.

    Hi. Kits are fine but I don’t think you can take paints on a plane. I used to but I think rules are more strict now.

    If I might criticize, You focused too much on bikes and cars. Very little planes and ships.

    Thanks for the comment. I build cars and bikes so that’s what I was drawn to but next time I’ll cover all of the models. 👍

    If I could visit these stores I'd screw out may credit card and pay a huge extra fee to dispatch them home... 😅
