RE: Looking to buy a submarine
Hi Nitroarcher,
I'm not familiar with who sells what in the UK, but I know both Krick and robbe have a submarine in their program.
If you want to go deeper, take a look at www.engel-modellbau.de , never mind the german language, just mail them and ask who sells their products in the UK or if they ship direct.
If you want to go really deep, google for Norbert BrĂĽggen, the Submarine "guru".
There must be more, but this is what I know of.
Regards, Jan.
Sorry for the stupid submarine wordgames, I couldn't help myself.....)

RE: Looking to buy a submarine
Hi Nitro - I've just finished the Robbe Seawolf and I would recommend it as a starter kit. - it's not too complicated and performs really well when finished. The best price for any model boat in the UK seems to be 'A Model World' I've had two kits from them and they sell at the lowest price that I have found. Their web site is www.amodelworld.co.uk I actually bought from them at The Doncaster Rally and the Blackpool rally - they are very helpful people - the Seawolf by the way is nearly a metre long - just a nice size for starters. Hope this info is of some help mate.
