Neverland Hobby - is this a legit model manufacturer?


Recommended Posts

Posted

Is the firm NEVERLAND HOBBY a legitimate model manufacturer? They make injection moulded kits with PE and may produce other things as well but my question boils down to whether or not they are on the 'pirate list'.

 

?

Nope. Looks like they manufacture plastic kits. I found links to their products at Scalemates and Fine Scale Modeler.

Chris the problem is as I pointed out at Drydock Models there are new manufacturer names popping up. If the NRG is serious about its stance it needs to one track manufacturers and identify the pirates and two keep the published list up to date.

They appear to be located in Belgium and have been around for a while.

You are talking about a shop near Bruges. I've been there in the past. It's a shop, as far as I know they don't produce anything and are therefore different from the manufacturer Bruce is enquiring about.

In addition to the shop in Brussels, there is also a Chinese manufacturer called Neverland Hobby

This is the company I was thinking of,  thanks.

Seems indeed the shop in Bruges (not Brussels, very insulting for Bruges 😋), is called Hobby Neverland, while the manufacturer is Neverland Hobby....
