Hi Seto, haven't been to that particular store, but all the modelzone stores I have been to are well stocked at a resonable price, with friendly helpful staff.

Cheers, Andrew

Modelzone in Holborn used to be my local shop, it's pretty big with plenty of stock, especially metal model cars.

Hope this helps.

Yup the old Beatties in Holborn (now Modelzone) was my local model shop when I first moved to London in the late 70s and once again when I picked up the hobby again recently. Large selection of all the main brands plus railways, scenic stuff, paints tools etc etc. Not always cheap but they often have a small sale selection and I've picked up a few bargains over the years.
