ID Models - 10 Christmas gift Ideas for 2014
- Gift Voucher
The
ideal gift for the person who is impossible to buy for but always knows
what they want! With an ID Models gift voucher you have no time limit
on when you have to use it (a simple extension request will add another
12 months) it can be used on the website, in the warehouse or over the
phone. Vouchers start at only €10.00.
- Motormax
Motormax
is our best value range of 1/18 and 1/24 diecast models. They start at
€14.95 and go up to €34.95. The American Classics are the most popular;
each model has opening doors and bonnet, lots of chrome parts and a
display base. If American classics are not your thing Motormax also do
beautiful modern classics like the BMW M3 and Lamborghini Aventador.
- MODEL KITS
For
as long as I can remember a plastic model kit such as Airfix has been a
hugely popular gift at Christmas. Even in this day and age of computers
and technology there is still a place for the traditional style toys.
Complete kits
(including glue and paint) start at only €8.95. So if you are looking
to keep anybody away form the TV or computer for a few hours over the
holidays, a model kit is the perfect gift.
- GEOWORLD
Geoworld
are an educational range of paleontology and archaeology based toys
that will amaze any young ‘wanna be’ Indiana Jones. The dig &
discover range is the most popular, discover the treasures within the
pyrite block, then learn about your discovery with the booklet provided.
There
is a big range of products to choose form, weather your interest is
Dinosaur bones or real fossils and gem stones, there always something to
capture the imagination.
- Nanoblock
The world’s smallest building blocks! With such tiny blocks you can build very detailed models, everything from the
Taj Mahal to a cute little
frog. Either build and display the model or leave it up to your imagination and build anything you want, there are lots of ideas on
Youtube of things to build.
- METAL EARTH
By
far the best new product for ID Models in 2014, the detail and accuracy
in each model has to be seen to be believed. Whether you want to build a
windmill or a star wars
AT-AT
there are plenty of different items to choose from. I recommend
starting off with something simple (single sheet model like the
Eifel tower) and build up to
Capitol Hill or
Sydney Opera House. There is no gluing or soldering, we recommend a
tweezers to make it easier.
Once
finished Metal Earth models make really spectucalar display pieces. We
recommend 12+ but anybody can build them with a bit of help.
- TAMIYA RC
New
to us this year is the Tamiya RC Range, a cut above what we have done
before but still great for anybody who is getting in RC or RC racing.
Buy the
Combo deals to ensure that you have everything you need to start racing. Have a look at our previous
Blog post on ‘What’s in the box’ to get a better idea of what is involved in building an RC Kit.
- CMC DIECAST
CMC
are the ultimate collectable display model, each model is had built and
can contain up to 1500 individual pieces. They make the perfect gift
for the person who is impossible to buy for but would appreciate the
detail and engineering that goes into building one of these beautiful
collectors’ items.
- TRONICO
Tronico
are a range of construction, farm and aviation metal kits that bold
together (very like meccano) to create either beautiful display models
or in the casr of the RC kits something to play with! Each model comes
with all the tools needed and with new improved colour coded
instructions building one of these is challaging but a great pleasure.
- TV AND FILM
We
all have a favourite TV show or movie that we have watched a hundred
times but still look forward to seeing it again, with our range of TV
& Movie models you can now have a permanent reminder of that show or
Movie. Browse or TV & Film section to see if there is anything that
would suit, the
A-Team and
Ghostbusters are still the most popular.
