It’s January 2022 and some updates and some new NEWS.

Firstly our ‘Falklands 40’ collection is sailing into port and the ships in red on this page are all in stock (19). Our next delivery is likely to be the middle of March. HMS Endurance has been added to the fleet. We have four Gift Sets available as per the website. Later in 2022 we will offer more Gift Sets featuring other ships. The gift sets will contain one major ship, two smaller escorts, a submarine, a ‘sea’ on a mounting board, all inside a custom-made strong box. Each ship is boxed separately in the set to ensure safe passage to you.

The models to be part of this collection include: Now made are in red.

Secondly, our January Sale.  This began in December and offers some slight seconds, some ships that are over stocked and so on.  Simply the more surplus items we can turn into money the more new items we shall afford to make.

 

Lastly, and very significantly is the launch of our 1200 scale Triang Minic Ships Series 4!

We’ve been working on this for months and are pleased to share a Catalogue list below.

Pictures will be on the website soon along with confirmed prices and delivery dates. We do hope you like them (especially the Lifeboat House Set and Pier Shelters).

We were the major supporter of Series 3 and are very aware that Triang collectors have nothing of the current Royal Navy except the Type 45s. We are also aware of the “hens teeth” nature of various original accessories so we have made a Type 23 Life-ex in five versions. Three ships have never been made in any Triang series and the other two were only in the Limited Edition.  Then there are 10 Accessory Packs to facilitate harbours everywhere.  All are completely newly designed and mastered, painted, referenced, and carded. They are all of metal except the Ocean Terminal pieces which are of a heavy resin.

As well as making items available for your harbours we have tried to get the prices in the spirit of Triang and of course they are all made in the UK.

All the items are completed and need to be bubble packaged and carded ready for sale.

From CNCollectables, this is a tribute to the Triang Minic tradition of model ships and harbours.

Yours in model ships, Clive and Dave
