Hello!

I'm in Berlin for a couple of days and I was wondering if there are any good model shops (1:35 armour, figures, AM, etc.) that are worth visiting? I'm in the center and will have to rely on public transport.

Any suggestions would be welcome.

Cheers

Matthew

Hi Matthew,

there are three shops I can recommend:

Berliner Zinnfiguren: https://www.zinnfigur.com/en/Store-in-Berlin/
Knesebeckstraße 88, 10623 Berlin
old little shop, lots of literature for the hobby, but also a good choice of 1/35 kits and AM

Werken-Spielen-Schenken: https://www.werken-spielen-schenken.de/anfahrt/
Berlin-Steglitz, Schlossstr. 110b
Mo - Fr 9:30 am to 8 pm
Sa 9:30 am to 7 pm
Take the Underground U9 to Schloßstraße and you'll be right there. The model department is in the basement. Best stock in town, but at "recommended retail prices". If you ask at the counter you might get 5 percent off.

Mario's Modellbaustudio: http://www.marios-modellbaustudio.de
Spandauer Damm 49, 14059 Berlin
Small Shop near Charlottenburg Castle, take the S-Bahn to "Westend" or the bus M45 from Zoologischer Garten to the stop "Klausenerplatz", worth a visit, many 1/35 kits from all over the world, and sometimes some good offers

Enjoy your stay in Berlin!

Cheers
Thomas

Thanks Alvaro and Thomas.

I'll try to pass by Zinnfiguren tomorrow. Just checked out the website and can already feel money burning a hole in my pocket.

cheers

Matthew
