New Retailer Perfect For Model Citizens

If you have a passion for all the small things, one of Brighton's newest retailers has the business model for you. Or is that a model business?

Either way, 105th Armoury is set to be your go-to for model kits ranging from sci-fi hits like Star Wars and Zoids through to all of your armed force favourites such as jets, planes, boats and more.

Owner-operator Keelan O'Driscoll is looking forward to his customers starting small but thinking big.

Our tag line 'Start Small, Think Big' has grown out of a passion for building model kits,� he said.

I love building model kits and I started the business back in 2015 due to the lack of a particular brand and genre of kit.

Creating this hobby store allows people to experience something new and exciting.�

Keen model aficionados can expect an epic range on offer, with kits from a vast array of hit and cult TV shows and movies, the armed forces and much more.

We offer a wide range of model kits and accessories, from anime kits to military and civilian kits, to the tools and paints needed to complete them,� Keelan said.

The main lines of kits we sell for anime are Zoids, Macross/Robotech, Space Battleship Yamato, Star Wars, Gundam, etc.

We also stock a wide range of tanks from 1/35th to 1/72nd scale, as well as aircraft in 1/32nd, 1/48th, 1/72nd, and 1/144th scale.

We even have a wide range of model cars, bikes, ships and helicopters. We also stock a small supply of remote control cars, small compressors and accessories, paints, tools and accessories for model building.�

Keelan said he was looking forward to providing a great service for keen model makers across north Brisbane.

We are helping the local community by providing a close and easy to access hobby shop, as well as giving a new and interesting hobby source for all ages,� he said.

In the future we hope to offer model kits build days, back to basics in model building, advanced classes in diorama and scenic work, as well as airbrush and painting tutorials.�

105th Armoury opens on Saturday, 4 July.
