Actually, I'm not worried that he doesn't send it or what... I asked about this from the beginning cause I was too excited. If he has a store and a website,...

Hello,

I will be visiting Singapore for a SuperStar Virgo cruise on June 3rd. I would like to know diecast shops in Singapore. During my previous trip, I bought a car from Nikko in Harbor Front. Now that it's closed down, I'll have to find others. I hope you guys can list the shops down and tell me which is close to the Singapore Cruise Centre. I know F1 Motorsports is in Meritus Mandarin Gallery, but is it near Cruise Centre? Also, how far is Nikko Wheelock and Millenia Walk from Cruise Centre? Your help is appreciated. I'm coming from Malaysia btw. Also, might be visiting the shops on June 9th because June 3rd is a Sunday.

Thanks.

Nikko Wheelock and Motorsports are on Orchard and within walking distance from each other.

For Nikko Millenium, you'll have to take the train from Harbourfront(cruise centre) or Orchard(from the 2 stores) to Cityhall station and take a 20 mins walk vis Citilink to Millenium.

You can take bus no. 65 from Harbourfront terminal to Orchard if you want to. That will take you straight to Orchard Road. Then from there, you can take bus no. 77 straight to Marina Centre and walk to Millenium. Save you some walking.

You might want to tell us what you are looking at in particular. Maybe we can help you zoom in to the place to get them. Typically, the Nikko shops will carry the same variety of stuff so perhaps you don’t have to go to both shops. I suggest you just visit the Millenium shop and give Wheelock a miss. Alex is knowledgable, friendly and not patronising.

Ok, so I should go to Millenium. How about F1 Motorsports?
I'm looking for the Kyosho F40, 575 GTC and maybe Hotwheels Elite. Also wanna look at other cars. Very Happy

Gallardofever SG

Oh no, you are a bit too late. Motorsports has a few batches of Kyosho F40 and 575 last 2 weeks. All gone now. For the Elite models, only place to go to is Motorsports since they hold most of the stock Mattel brings in. Nikkon will have more variety in Autoart and Minichamps.

Jyi SG

Thnaks for your info. Please keep me updated if they bring in a new batch of F40s and 575 GTCs.

Gallardofever SG

F40, maybe.
F575, don't think so.

anyone with lobang on how and when I can get a 575 GTC kindly PM me. Since I'm not in town most of the time, it's a bit difficult for me to keep track on the arrival dates Crying or Very sad

I believe its only right to introduce urself at the newbie forum 1st before we provide u with any lobang. Most of us here have been very friendly with one another. Btw, we provide timely information by msn or msging. thanks.
beside we seldom pm to reduce chances of abusing information. Very Happy

LH83 SG

I think the only place you can find the 575 GTC for sale now is on ebay...

Jyi SG

Thanks a lot for the info! Mr. Green

Someone just sold away the Ferrari 575 on yahoo auction! Guess you were too late! Anyway there will be another Black, the yellow and the red version of the 575. But duno if it will reach our shore! Cheers!

Gallardofever SG

The other 3 575s are the 2004 edition. Some differences from the 2005 car.

piglet1140 SG

Oh there is a difference ah? The different i see from pic is the sunshade without the the “Ferrari” wording! So will we be able to get the red version? Cheers!

Jyi SG

I don’t know if I’ll actually get to go to the shops. How far is Millenia/Orchard from Cruise Centre?
