Company details
Written by the company
Hello and welcome to Rivals Corner! First of all thank you for visiting our small hobby store. Rivals Corner was founded for a love of all things Japanese, Gundams and more importantly, a passion and nostalgia for the 90's and retro anime. We wanted the store and its logo to capture the feel of a Konbini [コンビニ] / convenience store from Japan, with bold lettering and familiar colours of a certain popular mecha ;) It’s currently run as an online only store [for now!] by me and my wife. We know there are a lot of other great stores out there and more established but our goal will be to open the first specialised hobby store for Japanese model kits in London. It may take some time, but hopefully with enough dedication, patience, some support from the community and let’s face it, da monies, we’ll be able to reach our goal and continue to serve a growing community of passionate fans and newcomers alike. For now we're primarily stocking Gunpla but we will grow our collection to other model kits and series in the future! If you'd like to request for a specific product, feel free to drop us a line and we'll see if we can find it and stock it in our store! We hope you enjoy our website and come back again to support our small business!

The only place in the UK you should be buying Gunpla from.
Site is easy to use, delivery is pretty much always on or before estimated dates and the range of kits is solid. Pricing is also bang on.

Immaculate
I've lost track of how many orders I've made with RC but always a pleasure and satisfied with the delivery, packaging and up to date kits once they advertise. Content is immaculate too so I'd heavily advise following their Instagram.

Rival corners is awesome
The range of stock they have is extensive and well rounded, you will most definitely find something to enjoy building, the delivery was very speedy and arrived intact and perfectly safe, the personal note was a nice touch and showed a caring side into building strong customer satisfaction. Would and will definitely bye from rival corners again.

Best Gunpla shop in the UK
I have placed two orders to date, and due to an issue with my second order, I was missing a piece from an Action Base. They were kinda enough to ship out a replacement part. These guys are top class, and will continue to order from them in the future
