m_r_parker Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 Unfortunately the only stockist I know of is in the UK, so shipping to New Zealand is going to be pretty pricey. http://www.antenocitisworkshop.com/ They have some good products, I did make a big purchase and can provide some snaps of the sorts of things i was getting if it helps.

Peredyne Posted June 12, 2015 Share Posted June 12, 2015 HO scale is considerably smaller than GW's 28mm Heroic scale. I would go with O scale. O scale is 1/48 and is very close the the GW Heroic scale.

CaptainHelion Posted June 14, 2015 Share Posted June 14, 2015 Here in Welly, your best bet is either TradeMe or either of the non-GW model shops around. Modelcraft and Hobbies in the CBD are alright, but I find the prices at the Hobby Stop in Kilbirnie a bit better. I prefer the staff at the latter, too.
