Action Model Centre in Torquay.

[langy71]

Guys,
I'm in Torquay this week..(enjoying the English Riviera to it's fullest) and whilst driving around I've spotted a model shop called Action Model Centre, has anybody been here before ?
there's not much info about it on the web and I wondered if it's worth dropping in to splash some cash ?

If it's a model shop, then of course it's worth dropping in!

If you`re visiting Torquay Chris then i presume you went Past/Via Newton Abbot :thumb2: ......
That being the case,(and i can`t comment on Torbay`s model shops),I`d recommend "Bekra Models" in Newton.... They are a family run,cracking little shop,(Also my Local one:hugging-face,it`d certainly be worth a look if you want to make the time.
It`s just up the road from the train station.....
If you`d like a "Pin Drop" just let me know.... It`s well worth a visit!

LOL, I've been in Newton Abbot this afternoon, didn't know about Bekra Models until I googled model shops near me earlier (..lol), Mrs L has just been told....read that as begged..(whilst I cowered meekly i might add) we may need another trip that way tomorrow, I'm sure there's a tea shop nearby i can treat her to afterwards.

Although I have spotted In Torquay harbour, the actual Embarkation Ramps used to load the US soldier onto their landing crafts prior to the journey to Omaha and Utah Beaches on D-Day,... A totally sobering site to realise that for many young men this would be the last journey they would ever take.
