David Ashby - Moderator Posted August 13, 2013 Share Posted August 13, 2013 Perkins were the UK distributor Gary but it looks like they've discontinued most GWS items. You could try a few of the larger retailers to see if some remain on shelves or perhaps Perkins themselves might be able to direct you?

Fraser White Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 Does anybody know what happened to GWS. Nobody in the UK seems to stock them anymore ? Very odd! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gordon Nicol Posted April 14, 2015 Share Posted April 14, 2015 Must be a record in the time taken to answer a post... GWS only used one importer, J Perkins, they in turn used their network to supply all the model shops . they brought in the last container years ago and the kits have become very rare. I was searching for ages , trying to get a new cowl for my harvard (, the base of the lemonade bottle just wasn't right) last year I decided to contact GWS myself , and took the risk of importing a small number of their kits, (35) these have been on sale through various sites, (facebook, uk modellers, and of course through ebay , I am now in the process of finding out what my customers want me to bring in this year, I have a list so far of 33 models, FW190, C130,Islanders , pico tiger moth, corsair,AT6 harvard and P 40 . I still have a little of the old stock left ..F15, A10 a spitfire and a P38 lightning. unfortunately the models I was wanting to import, namely Formosa kits, and the older Tiger moth 400 are not going to be available If anyone has any requests for GWS kit types not listed pm me [email protected] and we can discus your needs Gordon Nicol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
