Model shops in Brussels

[Josechu]

Hi,

Does somebody knows of models shops in Brussels specialising in or at least with some figures?

Thanks,

Josechu

Hi Josechu,
Try the shop named " .50" (read point 50)
The adress is "Boulevard Lemmonnier". not so far of Brussel's center.
There is a great choice of product and especially figures.
Welcome in Belgium and have a nice visit.

It's the one I always visit in Brussels.
You 'll have more choice in Antwerp, if you have the time.

Hello Josechu,

Like everywhere, model and figure shops in Brussels are getting rarer and rarer.

Like Pascal said, the only one worth its salt is Point 50, Boulevard Lemonnier 50, 1000 Brussels. Phone: 02-5127418

IMO since Tomker closed down some years ago, there's NOT a single figure shop left in Antwerp . Maybe Vergilius knows something I don't.

OK, thank you all very much for the hint. I'll try to go and have a look.

I visited Tomker in Antwerp some time ago, probably six or seven years, it's a pity that they dissapeared, they had some interesting product lines. In any event, I won't be able this time to go to Antwerp in commercial hours.

Thanks again.

What about "Le Casque d'Or"? I used to visit Brussels quite frequently and remember that shop was well stocked.
But that was maaaany years ago. I guess it no longer exists

You're talking about Jurrassic Park, Luis!

That shows your age (and mine, too! ).

Perhaps it would be a good idea to start a new thread listing model shops where figures are available as this does crop up from time to time. I think it would be very useful resource.
I'd start it myself but to tell the truth the few shops I have visited in York, London, Antwerp and Paris have all closed down.

Well, not so long ago. My last visit there must have been around 1990. That's only...17 years ago!!!. Man, i'm growning old

Well it's not what it used to be but brushes, paint and a limited amount of figurines (verlinden certainly) are available in 'Baillien' in Deurne.
