Liebe Kunden,
Für Online-Händler bringt der Januar, relevante Gesetzesänderungen. Bereits am 09.01.2016 tritt die Verordnung mit der (EU) Nr. 524/2013, zur
„Online-Beilegung verbraucherrechtlicher Streitigkeiten“ in Kraft.
Diese sogenannte ODR-Verordnung (Online Dispute Resolution) hat
das Ziel, eine unabhängige, unparteiische, transparente, effektive,
schnelle und faire außergerichtliche Möglichkeit zur Beilegung von
Streitigkeiten zu schaffen. Diese Streitigkeiten können sich aus dem
grenzüberschreitenden Online-Verkauf von Waren oder der Bereitstellung
von Dienstleistungen innerhalb der gesamten EU ergeben.
Das Ziel
dieser Verordnung soll, durch die Einrichtung einer
Online-Streitbeilegungsplattform (OS-Plattform) auf EU-Ebene und die
Regelung der Zusammenarbeit mit den nationalen Stellen für die
alternative Streitbeilegung erreicht werden.
Wir als Händler sind daher ab 9. Januar 2016 verpflichtet
worden, unsere Kunden auf die Existenz dieser Plattform zur
Online-Streitbeilegung hinzuweisen. Informationen dazu finden Sie in Artikel 14 Absatz 1 der ODR-VO, den Sie unter folgendem Link als PDF herunterladen können:
http://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/DE/TXT/PDF/?uri=CELEX:32013R0524
Außerdem
müssen wir den folgenden Link zur OS-Plattform für
Verbraucher leicht zugänglich auf unserer Webseite und denen des
Shops plazieren:
http://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr
Wie auf der Website der OS-Plattform nachzulesen ist, wird diese voraussichtlich erst im Februar 2016 ihren Dienst aufnehmen – die Hinweispflicht besteht allerdings dennoch bereits ab dem 9. Januar!

Dear Customers and
Friends,
I hope everybody made it well into 2019!
New Year, new madness, just from the beginning!
German Post kicked us into 2019 with a change of buisiness conditions and postage.
Some most clever idiot found it a good idea to bann all merchandise
from letter mail service and force all internet sellers to send their
goods by now as a parcel or package!
Even the small items need now to be send as a package, because the so
called "Päckchen S" which is up to a weight of 2kg is only
available in national services by now! Not in EU and rest of the world!!
This leaves only the option "Päckchen M" which is up to 2kg too,
but bigger in size (L+W+H=90cm) and of course much more expensive than
a letter!
So the EU forced us to close down Geoblocking last year, which we never
had, to sell all over the EU and World, even if it doesn't payoff
for some shop owners and this year all is sabotaged by the Deutsche
Post AG by changing the postage in a way it makes shipping into the EU
and rest of the World absolutely useless!
So we can't do much about it but complaining, we have to adjust the
postage for shipping into the EU and rest of the world by now.
The only hint we can give our customers is to order more than just one tiny item and check on the postage.
Our shopsystem is designed to add up as much items as possible before
jumping into the next higher category of shipping costs.
So to keep the costs low order more items for the same postage!

Dear Customers and
Friends,
Its a long time ago since I added some news to this page, but I
had had a bereavement within the family and therfore not the motivation
and time to do so.
But life goes on and so we have a lot of new items in the shop I wll
let you know to switch over to the German language version of this page
and have a look at all the new stuff.
It is simply to much to put it in here too. So follow the link...

17.07.2018
Dear Customers and
Friends,
it is warm outside and too warm for modelling even in a cool cellar,
which would be a waste of time anyway while sun is shining, but
Fall will come soon and its sure a good idea to get some stock for cold
and dark evenings by now.
This week we got some new items in large scales. First of all the 1/18
scale FW190A8 by Hobby Boss, which we waited for since ever.
Also the F190A5 is still available too.
Bothe kist base on the pre-built model by Merit and differ only in changes made on
the landig gear. The kit has no retractable landing gear, but a
optional but correct in-or out version. This is not much of
a problem besides most modellers built the aircraft in landed version
mostly and all who want to play with the struts may get the pre-built
model.
The A8 differs from the A5 in armament and thus in the structure of the
wing. So this part is new in the kit as well the hood of the guns and
details in cockpit.
But most important is the A8 is the version built in largest numbers of
all and in sub-versions and so called "Rüstsätze" (Weapons
sets). Therfore there will be more to come probably...
Also the King Tiger in 1/16 scale by Trumpeter arrived. A 2 in 1
version with both turrets the Henschel and the Porsche. It also
comes with complete interior and lots of details, a big decals set and
tools for applying anti magnetic surface structure (Zimmerit) to the
hull.
There are 7 Henschel color schemes possible and a bunch of Porsche
versions too. So almost any made tank version of teh King Tiger can be
build.
This kit is the definte one to make a super cool diorama in square
meter dimensions! But it is not recommended to be converted into an
RC-model. There are more easier ways to do so.
I got a kit from Modellcollect of a strange machine called A-222 "Bereg" 130mm Coastal Defense Gun
on wheels. I am not quiet sure abaout the way this vehicle is to be
used, but is sure makes an eye catcher on any model show although it is
in 1/72 scale only. It's russian design and therefore quite
interesting, because it doesn't reveil its use instantly. I guess
selfpropelled howitzers with tracks are not so well on the beach and
that's why they put it on wheels.
However the kit is special in more than one way. It comes pre-painted
in basic dark green, has rubber tyres and photoetched parts too and
comes in a clear box too. And it as a lot of details, like the complete
understructure, engine and gun. A kit to build in a extended weekend
session and a big questionmark on any modelshow. Better get an
explaination sheet to put aside before dying by questioning!
Same is with the next kit by Trumpeter. Its the kit of the year to me. First for the name and second for the purpose.
The Soviet 2A3 Kondensator 2P 406mm Selfpropelled Howitzer!
This gun is
strange in many ways, name and use and probably sense. Designed to beat
the West in delivering an atomic firststrike before the invention of
the ICBM during Cold War this gun was developed by former UssR. It has
a large 40.6cm calibre barrel and sure wins the contest of the longest
one, but went instantly out of business short after installation,
because of the arrival of the first ICBMs.
So it ended up as a prop for parades and puzzeling western spys.
Artillery fans shouldn't miss this model. It sure make an eye catcher and is a stunning piece of history.

Dear Customers and
Friends,
due to the trouble with the EU Data Security Law (DSGVO) and release of the F-14 and AV8 Pilot figures, we had had not much time left for completing the FW19A5 Pilot figures. So this will take a bit longer than expected.
All who have ordered them already may be patient please and all
thinking about to do so, may wait in anticipation until we announce the
release!
Sommer has come and it is
All our Superheros in 1/6 scale are on discount by now and there are a
lot that are out of production since a while or sold out in most shops!
So take the chance to complet your colletion just before going on vacation! You may not get then anymore when you are back!
Go have a close search in our shop, because there is some more on discount too!
On June, 30th 2018 at midnight it will be over and the prices rise to regular again!

Dear Customers and
Friends,
because of the mess with the new EU Data Security Law (DSGVO)
my time schedule was mixed up a bit, because I had to handle that
first. So the new Harrier Pilot will be availabe by this Monday and
same is with the F-14 F-104 and F18 Pilots. The FW190A5 Pilot isn't started jet at all, but next on the list and probably available in about 14 days.
Cockpitsection not included!
New!

22.05.2018
Dear Customers and
Friends,
just to let you know the F-14 Pilots will be available again by
June 1st, 2018.
We will also introduce at then same date the
new AV8 Harrier II Pilot figure kit in
1/18 scale fitting the Hobby Boss kit or the Merit
pre-built model.
The AV8 Harrier II kit by Hobby Boss is
available by now in our web shop at:
Soon there will be also available a pilot figure kit for the FW-190A5 and A8 in 1/18scale!

08.05.2018
Dear Customers and
Friends,
Hobby Boss relesed and will release some Kits in 1/18 scale we already know as pre-built collectibles. In fact the AV8 Harrier II
is almost the same model, except for some additional parts and the fact
it has a decal sheet with 2 possible versions to make. The additional
parts include the underbelly canon bay, which is great.
Here the canopy comes in a separate bubble wrapped box and can be
installed open or closed. To make this a interesting opportunity we are
designing the pilot figure at the moment, which will be available soon.
The FW190A5 is one of the two most built versions of the FW190 and will be followed by the FW190A8
which is the versin produced in the largest numbers. It also is the
base for a lot ofinteresting loads and weapons. So these two have the
potential to become the beginning of a whide range of conversions.
The FW190A5
has a newly made lower wing which corrects the wrong angle of the
landing gear. Unfortunately this can't be retracted any more and needs
to be installed static. This isn't a big issue, because most
of us will not flip the landing gear in and out all day long.
It also comes with two sets of decals. One of the already known
"Graf"-version and the other is the one shown on the box picture. The
decals sets also contain complete historical correct decals!
Also included are a bomb and an external fuel tank.
The FW190A8 will come by June probably and has the four wing cannons and hopefully some underbelly stuff to load.
Both kits don't have pilot figures, but we are working on it.
New!

Dear Customers and
Friends,
tax ruels are different
and sometime complicated around the world. In Germany they are special
in many ways. Therefore we have to inform you that we will not collect
any VAT from the brutto prices in the shop anymore because the tax law
discribe us as a so called "small business".
For that reason the shop will sow any VAT anymore and every invoice comes with the note :"Small Business, No VAT due to § 19 UStG".
This regulation starts from beginning of the year 2017, so some
invoices send out earlier will not have this not, but are valid in the
same way.
Please make sure when ordering that your local customs procedure tahes notice of this facts.
