Some of you may have noticed recently that items of stock are missing the ‘buy now’ button and are showing Not currently for sale. Like to see it return? Comment below. If you have an interest in one of these items we would encourage you to do just that!

Not only will this speed its return to stock it allows us to focus on what you hungry modellers want next for your collection. Once back in stock we will personally email you to say that it is available again. It is still our aim to return everything to stock but for a variety of reasons this has not been possible in recent months.

Items will be returned to stock in order of popularity with a proviso that large and complicated items may be bumped down the list as they are time consuming to produce. We hope you will be patient and understand that we will get to all of you eventually.

Good things come to those who wait!

You may have noticed that some items are marked with ‘Not currently for sale. Like to see it return? Comment below.’ With such a big range its hard to keep everything in stock so please comment against the kit you want and we will endeavour to re-stock it as soon as we can.

Sometimes a component of the kit is unavailable and it may remain off sale for some time but in most cases it is in a queue to be made on a demand basis. Once you have commented we will contact you by email once the kit is back in stock and it will be reactivated on the site.

Its been a busy year with the development of the new website. We therefore have not had a great deal of time for the development of new kits. We do, however, intend to get back into the saddle in the new year. Thank you to all our customers for their continued loyalty and patience. Please feel free to contact us as always via the contact link (top right of the page) or comments below.

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year from Accurate Armour
