This absolutely made our day. ❤️

A huge thank you to Kids in the Capital for sharing, and an even bigger shout-out to these young builders for jumping into their very first model kit.

One of the biggest myths about scale modelling is that it’s “just a hobby for old guys.” The truth is, it’s for anyone who enjoys creating something with their own hands. It teaches patience, problem-solving, creativity, and there’s nothing quite like seeing a project come together piece by piece.

We love seeing the next generation discovering the hobby, and we can’t wait to see the finished Fanta van!

Thanks again for letting us be a small part of their summer. ❤️

What are you building?

A fun summer project for the teens from The Hobby Centre. ❤️ 🚙
