Buoys Toys & Models, Cromer

[ollieollieollie]

I haven't seen a thread for this shop on here so here goes. Dave, the owner, keeps a very good selection of the smaller bits & pieces, Plasticard, Paints, Kits, Kadees, Scenery Items etc. Also loads of Peco track, a few O gauge wagon kits - saw some 009 in there too I think! He will order in Bachmann, Hornby, Dapol Rolling stock as he has for me (picked up my Colas 70 & Anglia Sound fitted 47 today - first time I had been in) as he doesn't keep much there at all. Don't expect Box Shifter prices but a friendly, knowledgeable welcome. He also has other models - cars, tractors, Aircraft, Thunderbirds etc. so something for everyone.

 

Disclaimer - I do know the owner from a previous life - but only found out about his model shop earlier this year - pay him a visit!

Great shop and as said Dave is a great bloke.

Loads of materials for building stuff

Very fortunate in this part of Norfolk, in addition to Buoys, Toys and Models we have Model Scenic Supplies at Northrepps and Bure Valley Models at Aylsham, all very good shops.

I was lucky enough to visit Buoys Toys & Models a couple of weekends ago and was really impressed with the amount of kits and scenic material that the shop has. I must have spent half an hour just looking at all the bits and bobs the likes of which I only normally find at a exhibition.

 

Fantastic stock and a really relaxed atmosphere to just browse. I ended up walking out with a number of things that I never knew I needed until I found them in the store.

 

My appreciation to the owner and honestly a great shop in a lovley town.
