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! ❤👍

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.

Thanks for watching and commenting. I love HK!

[@MrMyosotisSylvatica]

I am planning to visit some of this stores in the future very useful video actually for me thank you

[@weekendhobbyist]

Thank for watching and commenting! The Tamiya store is a must-go! Also there are many more in HK I didn’t get a chance to visit.

[@NickChan-dz5tw]

Welcome Hong Kong😊😊👍👍

[@weekendhobbyist]

Thanks!

[@zetaopress2389]

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.

[@weekendhobbyist]

Definitely I would be there at least weekly 😊 and I would be broke too! Thanks for watching and commenting.

[@maxmoritz5065]

[@shaanmallick9084]

[@weekendhobbyist]

Thank YOU!

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.

[@weekendhobbyist]

I love that store! I checked out the RC Mart too. ❤️

[@Luftwoller]

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.

[@weekendhobbyist]

Same for the U.S. 😕

[@bigcharliesmodelgarage296]

Nice. Thanks for sharing. 😊

[@weekendhobbyist]

Thanks for watching Big Charlie!

I found this Tamiya plamodel factory store their goods mostly are expensive than those store in monkok some model are HK $150 higher than other store

[@weekendhobbyist]

Makes sense. But it is the “Mecca”! 🤩

[@VC27]

I am a modeller and I stay in a country which doesn't have a single store like this. This video was a painful watch.

[@weekendhobbyist]

Sorry

[@HardyMung]

Hong Kong have many model shops like this one.

[@weekendhobbyist]

110%!

[@cristianci00]

I would look for the Tamiya 74092 Magnifying Visor….which unfortunatelly is was discontinued. Truly great product tho, I have one pair

[@gouravraja738]

hi bro i have a question can we bring truck kit on plane with tamiya paint 10 ml

[@weekendhobbyist]

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.

[@hereiam6149]

grew up in HK 2004 - 2010 lots of good memories 👍

[@weekendhobbyist]

I miss HK!

[@pilotkopter]

And about ships and planes?

[@weekendhobbyist]

Sorry, I’m a 🚗 modeler but will definitely cover 🚢 and ✈️ and armor on my next hobby shop tour.

[@davidcurtiswatts2378]

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

[@weekendhobbyist]

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. 👍

[@vmlelectronics]

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

[@weekendhobbyist]

It’s a miracle I didn’t go broke at this store 😝
