EVENT PREVIEW TIGER HOBBIES HALL 3, STAND 3G44 01709 890 940


Tiger Hobbies’ mission is to import scale military collectables and to give retailers models with both the profit margin and prices to be attractive to the end user customer. With its observation of worldwide prices, Tiger Hobbies has noticed quite large gaps between UK and overseas prices especially in the United States. So it has tried to get the price of models as close as possible to give the UK retailer – especially those dealing with mail order – the chance to sell their products worldwide and to capture the business of UK customers who


have in the past gone to retailers in the USA – and to those in other territories around the world. Tiger Hobbies’ portfolio of import


products includes two die-cast companies: Hobby Master and Century Wings – both great products bring together both detail and value. Tiger also imports Falcon Diecast which will cover 1/72 classic US jets from the 1950s and Blitz72 an entry level Military 1/72 range. Tiger Hobbies also distributes in the UK a number of other products on behalf of its import companies and direct imports.
