Hi all,
Can someone recommend a hobby shop in Prague, Czech Republic? Preferably a good focus on 1/35 kits.
I’m taking a 10-year wedding anniversary trip there next week and wanted to pick up some kits from that region of the world: IBG, ICM, Miniart, Revell Germany, Zvezda to name a few.
From a quick Google search, Pecka - Modelář and Plastic Planet Ltd. came up but not sure how well stacked they’re.
Your help would be appreciated.
Kind regards,
James
Some years ago I visited this one on Myslikova street:
I liked it a lot. Have a nice stay in Prague!

Thanks, Pawel. Looking at the Google map, that location (MPM Model Shop) closed permanently unfortunately…
Kind regards,
James
Sorry to hear that - it was a nice shop. I quickly looked it up just before writing you and didn’t see that info. But knowing the Czechs I’m sure you will find at least one other nice hobby shop there!
Seems they remain active:
https://www.mpmshop.eu/
Looking at their address on google maps, it still shows the sign. Not sure how easy to get there, though.
Its website is active but the particular location in the Old Town area is permanently closed:
Unfortunately, Carlos, the Google map photo is outdated.
MPM still has a location in the suburb, which is about 40 mins. away by train from the tourist area.
O, well, I’ll try my luck with the one supposedly a walking distance from the hotel I will be staying in…
I wasn’t referring to this, but the address on their website. Google image is from 2019… as the website is active, I guess it would be easier just to write them and ask
Nah, that location in the suburb is too far. Thanks for trying though.
Plus, I want to avoid my wife’s wrath for going out of the way to buy more crap I don’t need. 
It can for a “contest” or your modeling friends. 
Haha! Those ‘excuses’ didn’t work because she knows I don’t participate in contests and I rarely sell my kits. The mitigating factor this time was for “reference material” gathering so I can use it for 3D modeling and printing = making some profits instead of just wasting $.
