We carry an extensive range of diecast
collectibles, model cars, airplanes, bikes and trucks from all the leading
manufacturers including First Gear, Ertl, Minichamps, AutoArt, Biante,
Armour, Classic Carlectables, Trax, SpecCast, Quartzo, Ixo, Maisto,
Sunstar, Muscle Machines, Highway 61, Exoto, Hot Wheels, Mattel and
others.
In our store we stock diecast model cars
in all sizes 1/43, 1/18, 1/25, 1/34, 1/64 plus others. We have a large
selection of Airplanes from the Armour Collection (recently taken over
by Franklin Mint) and we occasionally get the obsolete collection from
a disinterested collector (hard to believe isn't it?). We have recently
added to our site a range of highly collectable Barbie Dolls for those
who do not have so much interest in diecast.
The Shire Models OnLine Diecast Model
Shop is a secure shopping site. We use 128 encryption to ensure that
all your credit card details are safe. We do not charge your card until
the shipment is ready to go. Visit
our Security Page for more information.
Our site is updated continuously. We
have, for your convenience, a list of "New Releases" that
will change every time we receive a new shipment. This can happen quite
frequently as we receive new models 2 or 3 times a week. We have also
categorised the models by manufacturer and scale so if you know who
makes the type of models you collect you will have great enjoyment viewing
the models available. You can also find models by using our search facility.
Our OnLine shopping store comes with
a basket for your convenience. If you register your name and details
when you enter the store you will also have the ability to save what
you have in your shopping basket today and come back at another time
and add to it. Pretty neat eh!.
Shire Models commenced business in December
1993 from a small shop in Caringbah, NSW Australia. We were the first
Australian business to import First Gear trucks and had a very large
and impressive range. We offered the First Gear trucks to the Australian
market via our new mail order and heavily advertised them through the
major collectors magazines.
In 1997 we opened our new store in Sutherland,
NSW Australia. We developed our first website in 2000 and are continuing
to improve on those humble beginnings. Our new shop is triple the size
of the Caringbah site and we would love you to drop in if ever you are
in our area.
We hope you enjoy our browsing our web
site and we wish you Happy Collecting!
