      General Info

      Acorn Models has New Zealand's largest range of model and hobby products & supplies. Established as a Christchurch retail shop in 1985, we've grown in size and popularity & now have a large mail order base serving the whole country. It's always been our wish to make available the best quality products at the best available prices. To achieve this, we source product from around the globe, importing many items which are not typically available from hobby stores within New Zealand. Our website is like a virtual hobby store with all our products. And because our webserver works off our in-store database in real time, if it's on the site, it's in stock. If there is something you are looking for that is not listed, it may be temporarily out of stock, so just ask! Acorn Models covers all kinds of model and hobby products from: * Motorcycles * Cars * Planes * Boats * Helicopters * Slotcars * Radio controls * Trains * Kitsets * Rockets * Paints (including Vallejo), Glues and Finish * Tools & accessories, and * Books & manuals (including Kalmbach) Whatever your gift, hobby and model needs, visit the Acorn Models website or call us today. We look forward to serving you!

      Having a family member who is very into the model car scene I found this store to be amazing in sourcing a gift for them, there is a wide range on offer and with the helpful staff I was able to locate the ideal item.

      I don't know much about the world of models, but I do know that they make great gifts for my dad and husband, and that this store has a wide selection, they are well set out, and have friendly staff to help me choose the right products.

      Acorn Models were in Masterton over the weekend at the Wairarapa WBS train show. They had so many products to offer and so many more available at their store. Two of the nicest people to deal with. Thanks so much for being part of the show.
