Model Shops in MOSCOW Russia, ARMA MODELS part 1

#SCALEMODELS
MOSCOW MODEL SHOP GUIDE PART 1 - ARMA MODELS

I was fortunate enough to visit Moscow last weekend. I teamed up with one of my best friends Pablo who lives in Moscow. So, I received a guided tour of hobby shops in Moscow.
This video is our visit to Arma Models in Moscow. It is worthy to note that they are also an internet shop and I had previously placed orders with them – they are extremely reliable and excellent shop.
The shop is one of the best stocked I have visited in the world and I even compare it to the shops in Tokyo Japan! As you will see not only many kits – but after market… tools… paints .. books… EVERYTHING you could possibly need!
Enjoy the Tour!
Some example prices -
NEW Zvezda Sherman – 1,200 Rub = $15.50 / GBP 11.99

Incredible store! I'm so glad I live nowhere near that place..lol

OK, now I have two reasons to go to Moscow: the underground stations, and this shop.
There are no model shops anywhere near where I live. I'd have to go to London to go to a proper model shop, and even there I don't think there's anything like this shop for the size, scope and ranage of... well, everything.
Great walkaround!

I would spend so much in that shop, just the paint section alone is amazing and they have so much stock!

[RaysBlueBasementWorkshop]

That is the Holy Grail of hobby shops!

[claytonl.covell]

That store is the best I've seen yet.

The closest hobby shop near me has literally 1 cutting mat. 1 roll of masking tape. 1 pack of sand paper. This store is amazing. I could spend a whole day in there. So many different brands.

If you could slow down on the panning, it would be 100%better. I was getting dizzy because you were moving the camera so fast, plus I couldn't see anything.

[paulcooke]

What a place. Could spend hours there and a small fortune I’m sure.

I LOVE KIT have bought merit over and releasing all the older PT boats etc again in 1.48 the new British X craft is one of there first to be released I bought it last week the box has in the corner I love kit! With the red love heart in the middle haha! But a stunning kit and can't wait for the elco 80s and 109 to be released again innthe next couple of months!

Really impressive. I think there is even enough in 1/72 too and additional all the aftermarket material as well.
A weekend is a bit short and a shopping cart is hopelessly undersized.
Have a great weekend, Mark. Greetings, Joachim

My city, Louisville has nothing that even approaches this. I buy my supplies exclusively online and rely on channels like yours for selection advice. I would love to be able to go to a store and actually see the paints and kits.

Who needs a model shop like this when we have Hobbytown and Hobby Lobby!!

[gokhanersan]

I want to see more 1:48 scale vehicles. Would be really nice to have that option to create rich aircraft / vehicle dioramas.

[johnwaters]

What a beast of a me some of those 1/16 trumpeter kits ...thanks for sharing

[berniescheid]

Wow. Slow down your camera panning next time please! Cant see anything! Too bad such a cool store. 🇨🇦

[wellardme]

Thanks so much for the video. I'm a Watford-ite living in Moscow and do the hobby. I order from them but i though they were just an online store.

[unknownravers]

Mate ...wow...what a place to spend all the cash you have...Incredible ..Great video👍👍👍👍👍👍

I disagree with you. They don't have the largest selection of add-ons. They have the large selection of add-ons - 1/35 and maybe 1/72. All other scales have minimal residues or nothing at all. Well, all the splendor of the choice began not so long ago. There are old shops where you can find old rare decals and resin. There is nothing like that. At first, they sat in a small room with goods to order. Their prices are not the lowest. It happens that their prices differ by $15+ with other stores for the same model. The price of a zvezda sherman is not an indicator.

[MomentalnoVMore]

I personally try to buy only new models there on pre-orders, and special discounts. You can't drag me to this store without them. They just gained their popularity on pre-orders with models of the zvezda. When photo-etching, resin, paints, glue are added to the model at the retail price. Now they're have more buyers and have reduced the number of add-ons. And they began to sell them only separately, but often only to those who made pre-order. At the same time, the quality of the add-ons was not always even good, it jumps top and down. Delivery times for their supplements are long. At the same time, they periodically do not fulfill their promises. One of the cash additions to the pre-order A350-1000 1/144 from December 2019 has not yet been released. Cheating.

I am dizzy, I had to give up watching. The camera was buzzing all over the place, not allowing even a second to focus on any of the boxes. I am fed up with what should be an interesting video being spoilt by totally amateurish fast moving camera work. Can someone go back there and do a good video with a proper camera.
