I am in the UK. I am searching around and I am having trouble finding what NEW IN SHRINK stuff is for sale and where I can get it. Could someone please help with that? I am in deepest darkest Wiltshire, so about a million miles from anywhere, but I do not mind buying online providing the price is good.
I was looking for the AFX 1:64 stuff, but cannot find anything new in the UK. Space is an issue, I am in a small bungalow.
I was looking for the Carrera 1:43 stuff as they say even though it is bigger it takes up roughly the same space as AFX. BUT, I cannot find any of that in the UK new in shrink.
If I was going to go for Carrera 1:43, do you have to buy a track pack(s) and then buy cars and controls separately? Are there any all-in-one boxes.
The new Carrera Hybrid stuff looks good, but it appears to need both racers having one of them new fangled smart-phone thingies. Is there any chance in the future that Carrera could do a non smart phone version for people who are 'smart' enough not to have bought into the smart-phone craze?
The one that looks the ****best**** to me by a mile is the Carrera 1:32. It looks fantastic, but after having seeing some videos, I would have to build another wing to my bungalow. The neighbours are not going to be happy about that, as their garage next to us will have to come a cropper.
One thing I should add, is we not be having a fixed build if that is important. We will be putting it up and packing it away, every time we play.
As for style, I think I would like some sort of porshe or posh car, or touring car, or NASCAR, that kind of style. Are there any box sets with that?
So, any advice, especially where to get this stuff in the UK at a decent price will be very helpful. Are there any shops in the UK that sell AFX, Carrera or Scalectrix?
