We understand that customers are starting to experience delays with all mail and even first class

We have raised this with Royal Mail and they have referred us to this statement on their website:

Important information:
During these unprecedented times, we continue to work hard to collect, process and deliver the UK’s mail. However, despite our best endeavours, it’s likely some areas of the country will experience some level of disruption due to Coronavirus-related absences at local mail centres or delivery offices. We’re sorry about this. Every item of mail is important to us, so we’re working hard to keep any delays to a minimum

Therefore, please allow extra time for your item to arrive, especially in this month of Cyber offers and running up to Christmas 

It's only mid November, but Royal Mail last posting dates for both airmail and signed/tracked services are fast approaching for our overseas customers

We will be posting every working day, right up until Christmas, but if you need an item for the festive season, we would encourage you to buy as early as possible

Since the lockdown in the UK, online sales have boomed, meaning that all parcel/postal carriers are much busier than usual and expect to receive unusually high levels of items in the run up to Christmas

​Royal Mail last posting dates are below:

Friday 4 December - Australia, New Zealand

Wednesday 9 December - Africa, Asia, Caribbean, Central and South America, Far and Middle East

Thursday 10 December - Canada, Cyprus, Malta

Friday 11 December - Greece, Eastern Europe, (except Czech Republic, Poland and Slovakia) and Turkey

Saturday 12 December - Czech Republic, Finland, Italy, Poland, Sweden, USA

Wednesday 16 December  - Austria, Denmark, Germany, Iceland, Netherlands, Norway, Portugal,
Slovakia, Spain, Switzerland

Friday 18 December - Belgium, France, Ireland, Luxembourg

These items are now available from Torro 

Great additions for your modern military collection

,It's a Bank Holiday here in the UK on Monday and we'll be expecting the usual August weather of either boiling hot sun or gales and rain!

As it's a Bank Holiday on Monday 31st, we will be unable to post any items until the Post Office re-opens on Tuesday 1st September 

Therefore, if you order anything from us over the next few days, please allow a couple of extra days for the items to arrive, as Royal Mail will not be working on the Bank Holiday

​Thankyou for your understanding

We were delighted to be invited to our first tank meet of the year by the Grantham Light Armoured Division, last Sunday 

A lot of work had been carried out by the club, communicating the rules for the meet, setting up a one way system round the venue, capturing contact details etc

It was great to see everyone again (behind their masks of course) and we hope to do this all again in September

Even the tanks were getting in on the social distancing requirements

It turns out face masks make perfect 1:16 scale dozer blade covers

A short note to ask for your co-operation if possible please 

We have noticed an increasing number of orders and also enquiries coming through the website, where customers are entering either incorrect or incomplete details 

Unfortunately, this is causing us problems when the website is sending automatic email notifications relating to orders, or when we are trying to respond to questions 

We would like to re-assure you that we do not share your contact details with anyone else, spam relentlessly with marketing emails or make cold calls

Thankyou 

We are seeing a spike in sales to overseas destinations, especially Canada, Australia and the USA

We have recently spotted that the cost of posting these items seems to have increased and this is not reflected in the postal costs we currently charge on the website

Therefore, you will notice that the cost of some postage options will increase. It will not be an increase across the board, we will just be raising costs where costs have gone up for us

As you know, we do try and get the best postage option for customers, but we do have to at least charge what we are paying to send items

Thankyou for your understanding
