Yesterday afternoon, we were pleased to receive our first delivery of the eagerly anticipated Corgi New Routemasters. These stunning models proved popular from the very outset, with many of our customers choosing to place pre-orders. Each livery was produced as a limited production run of 1000 and split across two destinations. As with most Corgi OOC releases, the models have their own numbered collector's card for authenticity. Some manufacturers no longer provide these with their models so it is definitely a nice touch. Also, they are presented in clear display cases.
GoAhead London is the first livery we'll look at. This bus was unveiled to celebrate 50 Years of The Royal Regiment of Fusiliers (1968-2018). The striking colours stand out on the streets of London, and make for a perfect model in your collection. You can choose from either the Blackwall (OM46627A) route or Stepney Arbour Square (OM46627B).
The second release is the Stagecoach Supporting World Environment Day 2017 livery. This is available in both Tottenham Court Road (OM46625A) and Hainault (OM46625B) destinations.
We also stock plenty of other Corgi buses. To take a look at what is currently in stock, please click here.
There are still a number of OOC models to be released this year and we invite pre-orders for the full range. Reservations can be made by emailing sales@phillipshobbies.co.uk, with no need to make payment until we are able to dispatch.
How much do these models cost? The manufacturer's recommended retail price is £46.99. However, our price at Phillips Hobbies is just £33.49. You can purchase from us in confidence: as discerning collectors ourselves, we offer an exceptional service and carefully pack each order.
