🍂 Well, that happened quickly… 🍂

The nights are drawing in, the jumpers are making an appearance and apparently summer has decided it’s had enough. 😂

So, as we head into autumn, we’re moving to our autumn opening hours and will be taking Sundays off until the October half-term holidays.

But fear not, we’ll still be here Monday to Saturday keeping you supplied with LEGO, model railways, Warhammer, Airfix, Scalextric, Pokémon and all the other things you absolutely need…

🍁 Monday–Saturday — Open as usual
🍁 Sunday — Closed until October half-term

Well… it survived. 😂

Somehow the new LEGO Technic Koenigsegg made it from the delivery to the shelves without Owen “just having a quick look”.

And, even more importantly, the much awaited Shrek Minifigures have finally arrived!

Both released TODAY and are now on the shelves at Albatross… assuming Owen hasn’t opened the car by the time you get here. 🤣

Owen doesn’t like ANY mention of the C word until about October… whereas I’m firmly Team Rudolph as soon as possible! 🦌🎅

So, best not mention that the LEGO Star Wars Advent Calendar, goes on sale tomorrow, 1st September! 🎄✨

We also have the brand new LEGO Ayrton Senna Helmets landing too.

Let us know if you are team Rudolf or Team Grinch 🤣🤣🤣

September is just around the corner…

The nights are starting to draw in, which can only mean one thing, more time for painting!

So dust off those paintbrushes, grab those Warhammer figures and settle in for some hobby time.

Today we’ve got a fantastic drop of new Age of Sigmar, Ogor Mawtribes😍

Also, if you’re looking for a game or some company while you paint, there’s a fantastic local group that meets on Monday nights Aberystwyth Miniature Wargaming Club

Send help. We’ve lost Owen. 😂

It’s our fav time of the month, when the new Lego arrives. Somewhere beneath this mountain of boxes is a man who has just discovered a VERY big car. 🚗😍

He may never come out. 🤣 New Lego on the shelves September 1st!

THE OGRE IS BACK!

No, not Owen… Shrek! 🤣🤣💚

After selling out super-fast last week, our Shrek LEGO is back in stock along with restocks of:

ET
Snoopy
Donkey Kong
Tintin And the new LEGO Tower Bridge is back on the shelves too!

If you missed out last week, you’d better be quick… these have already proved they don’t hang around for long! 👀

Even Moriarty couldn’t resist a trip to see Pete Waterman’s Making Tracks down at the beach! 🐾🚂

His verdict?

“It’s absolutely paw-some!” 🐶❤️

If you haven’t been yet, there’s still time to come and see this incredible layout, it’s here all week.
