Really nice experience with BrickTanks. Delivery was super quick and they even included a handwritten thank-you note, which was a great touch. Will definitely be ordering from them again and getting surprise gifts for myself
I have been using Bricktanks for 6 years now even though I have no interest in brick tanks! They also do aircraft, cars, space rockets and other military with a range of quality brands covering models from lots of eras. Regular great blog featuring upcoming models from Cobi and associated stories. They also have a reward scheme that is well worth signing up to. Orders always despatched within one working day.

Thanks for the lovely feedback, Diana. I'll let James know - he's currently cycling from Land's End to John O'Groats!
They are SOOOOOO friendly! Its amazing! I ordered 2 cobi sets which were cheaper than on the official cobi website! I got FREE delivery and they kept me updated every day and even sent a thank you email afterwards! Safe to say they have the nicest customer support! 😄

If you're in need of anything Cobi, Sluban or Buildarmy this is your shop; I cannot recommend them enough. With fair prices, free next day delivery to the UK*, friendly customer service and a really wide range of stock, I really don't think there's anywhere better
